Course Name:    Legally Justified But Was It Avoidable? (Mandatory Only)
Course Description:    Presented by Calibre Press. This 8-hour course analyzes dozens of recent use-of-force videos and focuses on the totality of the interaction. We dissect the behavior of the offender and more importantly, the thoughts and behavioral processes of the officer(s) involved. Specifically, we consider if poor or ill-advised tactics, ineffective communication, a lack of personal control and/or a misunderstanding of acute stress led the officer(s) to escalate the event unintentionally and unconsciously. In this course we will discuss:
  • Force: Can it be avoided? How? Will it be?
  • Powerful research: how stress breaks down your ability to process information
  • Handling pressure at the pivotal moment
  • Did poor tactics contribute to the need to shoot
  • Don’t throw fuel on the fire! Controlling the inner “idiot”
  • The overall goal and how stress diverts from that mission
  • Slowing things down can be your most powerful tactic
  • A hard look at the reason mistakes are being made
  • Cognitive deterioration leads to “Decision Decline”
  • Avoiding Behavioral and Content Loops
  • The Power of Mid-Event Disengagement
