November 19-20 2025, 8:00am-5:00pm
Credit Hours: 16
Course Number: R1 161
Description:
The Force Encounters law enforcement training program is an introduction to the psychological and physiological factors that affect threat assessment, sensory perception, decision, performance, and memory. The course applies these concepts to high-stress and life-threatening encounters in a law enforcement context. The latest version of the course includes up-to-date material that will change the way participants view video recordings, such as those from body cams. At the end of the course, students will understand the critical factors involved in use-of-force decisions and their performance in such situations. Participants will be able to incorporate the psychological and physiological concepts they learn into training programs that can enhance departmental and individual officer performance, encourage accountability and inform community oversight. The concepts taught in the course support commitment to procedurally just investigations, employing realistic, thorough and evidence-based analysis.
