Rob Tirollo taught our course. He relayed the info in a well prepared and thoughtful manner. His skilled instruction motivated students to listen and learn. He used sober examples as well as appropriately time humor to instill the information. I have been in law enforcement for 41 years and an instructor for over 36 years and this is absolutely the very best course I have ever attended. I am not only ready to teach I am inspired to pass this on.
Thank you for what will surely help save lives.

Adam Hoffman –
Instructor Robert Tirollo taught the class in a very professional manner, while also being interactive with the students to keep them engaged the entire course. Not only was he able to keep the whole class engaged but was able to present the material that made it relatable from both civilian and LEO persecutive. I could continue on and on but until you’re able to be apart of a blue shield course it’s entirely to hard to give the correct representation until you are a student yourself.
