Officers completing this course will be certified to INSTRUCT officers in the STOPS officer survival program. \; Upon completion of the STOPS program\, your officers will be able to execute vehicle stops SA FELY\, pedestrian contacts\, commercial vehicle stops\, vehicle extraction s\, drug interdiction stops\, and high-risk (felony) stops. \; Officer s will be trained in risk assessments and proven methods to counter feloni ous and accidental assaults. \; Vehicle stops will be broken into 12 a mbush zones for the officer to be aware of and escape techniques to counte r assaults.\nThe STOPS program is based on research from officers injured or killed in the line of duty. \; We then developed strategies and tac tics that countered the assaults\, significantly increasing the officer’s survival probability. \; The STOPS program is nationally and internati onally recognized as the leading program in tactical/officer survival trai ning available.\nVehicle stops will be divided into low-risk\, unknown-ris k\, and high-risk. \; Each category has pre-planned options to minimiz e the chances of being assaulted by both accidental and felonious means. & nbsp\;The officer’s goal during the course is to always think about the sa fest way to deal with every situation while recognizing danger cues.   \;STOPS students will dominate through superior training and a warrior min dset when an assault is attempted.\nSTOPS training is realistic with both classroom and dynamic field exercises. \; These classes will also incl ude our bonus force-on-force training. \; Upon obtaining instructor-le vel certification\, instructors will be certified to teach the “STOPS Tact ical” Officers Survival System for 36 months.\n\nWhat will the student lea rn?\n\nIntroduction to Strategies &\;
