Tactical Mindset

Course Description: Tactical Mindset is an intense course that will challenge the officers. This course is designed for patrolmen, detectives, school resource officers, and SWAT operators. Officers will be challenged through lectures, discussions, and video footage of fellow officers involved in a shooting. This will be a classroom, and class participation will be requested. This course will explore officers’ mental and physical health. A tactical mindset will assist the officers in preparation for that deadly encounter. It is also designed to open the mindset to understanding the obstacles that will be encountered after the shooting. This course will provide ideas and things that need to be in place and already shared with loved ones in the officer’s life when the day comes. This course will also assist the officers in preparing to support their fellow officers and their families after a deadly encounter or a use-of-deadly-force encounter. The course will allow officers to face reality and challenge themselves mentally and physically. It will get deep into the psychological and physiological aspects of a shooting. At the end of this block of instruction, every student will take something back home and also leave with a stronger commitment to be more dedicated, motivated, obligated, and determined to be ready for the fight when it shows up.
