***This is a certified course through Human Factor Research Group***
This course is offered to re-certify officers to be instructors for PPCT Defensive Tactics.
The PPCT Defensive Tactics System is the first subject control system developed through tactical, legal and medical research. Tactically, the system addresses the most common types of resistance officer’s encounter, allowing the instructor to maximize training on job related techniques. Legally, the PPCT System teaches a simple use of force continuum that clarifies the appropriate force level for every level of resistance. Medical research was conducted on every PPCT technique to refine technique efficiency and to ensure the medical implications were proportional to the level of resistance.
Course Goals:
Participants must pass written & practical exams to be certified/re-certified. Exercise clothing and tennis shoes are appropriate attire for this course.
