Course Overview: Leadership in Critical Incident Management

This two-day Leadership course is designed specifically for Command Staff, First Line Supervisors, and aspiring supervisors. It transcends the basics of setting the stage for SWAT response, and guides students through global critical incident response, control, and command.

Day One: Dives into essential tactics, techniques, and procedures to effectively respond to, control, and command critical incidents from the onset.

This course aims to equip students with leadership methodologies, techniques, and procedures for both initial response and the ongoing management of critical incidents in law enforcement.

The course has been developed from over 20 years of experience in investigating, managing, and leading rapidly evolving critical incidents, and the transition of those incidents to extended duration investigative scenes, such as Violent Crimes Against Persons, Officer Involved Shootings, Active Shooters, Hostage situations, and Barricade with Weapon subjects.

The course is Incident Command System, National Incident Management System centric, combining facilitated discussions and classroom exercises to solicit growth customized to the agency of the student.
