  30. Sgt. Michael Roberts –

    De-escalation is one of the most misunderstood areas in law enforcement today (on both sides of the issue). This course truly clarifies what it means to the regular street cop. Miscommunication and misunderstanding issues are at the heart of so many unnecessary conflicts. This course is a great step in the right direction to mend the gap between Law Enforcement and the Communities that we serve and protect.

  31. Kevin Stoll –

    Excellent course. Worth the money. Master Instructor Jason Taylor is an expert on the topic with tons of knowledge and experience.

  35. Lance S (verified owner) –

    Communication. It’s something that officers do every day, but how often do we think about the actual words that are used? This class is a great tool to help realize the importance of effective communication as well as recognizing the difference between words and phrases that can either help to resolve a situation or agitate a situation. Jason is a great instructor that brings his years of experience to the classroom.

Some of the content covered in these courses can be rather mundane but Taylor’s delivery keeps it moving. He intersjects humor when appropriate which lightens the mood and helps move tge class forward. Would HIGHLY recommend.

  85. Sheila R Vitacco –

    Great instructor. Excellent information. Highly recommend!!

  86. M. A. S. –

    Fantastic course. Currently attending day three and although I previously thought I had an above-average grasp on “verbal judo” & “de-escalation”, the content far exceeded not only my expectations, it effectively tripled my knowledge.

    Jason is a fantastic instructor. He’s motivated, engaging, and passionate about teaching. If I can pass on the skills I learned even HALF as effectively as Jason did, the course will have paid for itself. Given the litigious society we live in now-a-days, courses like this are worth their weight in gold. I highly recommend it to any peace officer. If you’re an administrator, I recommend this course for your force instructors.

  87. Sgt. Jesse Davis –

    This course is an excellent course for every law enforcement officer today! Instructor Jason Taylor does an excellent job in presenting the material and working with the students in the class! I recommend this course to everyone!

  88. Cpl. C. McCombs –

  89. Keith Osborn (verified owner) –

    Very impressed with this course. It was presented well and the instructor was very knoledgable with the subject matter. This was not one of your sit and listen courses, class participation was encouraged from day one. The material was designed to be easily adaptable to specific agency needs. Not only will I be able to present the material to my officers, but will be able to use in my professional and personal life. Blue shield tactical did a fantastic job with this course.

  90. Chris Walsh –

    Sound communication principles; the course is well suited to help officers decrease the need for using force and increase the ability to gain cooperation and information from difficult people, and do so in a safe way.

  97. Jacob Luria (verified owner) –

    Excellent class that should be taught nation wide. The instructor is highly engaging and knowledgeable. This is a must for every cadet and street officer.
