Knoxville, Tennessee

Excellent course with thought-provoking and educational examples. Both entertaining and informative.

Great course! It was a good refresher and reminds me to keep things legit for the best stops!

This is a great course which will help any officer make great cases while using these search techniques without violating anyones rights.

This is an amazing class and has a lot of great information!

Very informative course! It gave me more insight and useful information.

Very insightful.

Advanced Traffic Stops helped me, as a 4 year LEO, feel more comfortable with 4th Amendment questions while on a traffic stop. Thank you!

Much appreciated! You all do a fantastic work and service for the law enforcement community. I wish you were around when I was a rookie. Keep it up. Thank you for laying out your teachings in such an understanding way. Love your commitment to our LEO community!

This course does a great job on expanding basic knowledge on traffic stop legality. Great breakdown of legal points involving traffic stops. The case law associated with each module is a great touch.

I'm a new supervisor and after taking this course, I feel more prepared to mead my officers

I enjoyed going through this course and gained new insights on traffic stops based of case laws that were mentioned throughout the course. I liked the video examples used and how they were broken down to relate to this course.

The class was great

Very good class

Great class, extremely useful for the job!

Great information. Wonderful class.

The Advanced Traffic Stops class was awesome and the instructor was engaging. He made the class very enjoyable and informational.

I took the Advanced Traffic stops course. This course was helpful in explaining case law. That course was a detailed refresher.

Very informative, helped me understand how to improve my traffic stops

Great class! Learned a lot about the 4th amendment.

Great training - A lot of case law that I learned new things about & case law I had never read before

Advanced Search as well as traffic stops was excellent. Zaki was a great instructor and very intelligent. He answered any and all of my questions before and after class. Thanks Zaki!!

Advanced traffic stops class, another amazing class, great case studies.

I enjoyed the class. The use of Colorado specific cases was very appreciated.

Great class. Great instructor.

Good presentation and good content. The case law aspect was the most beneficial.

Very interesting subject matter and it is always good to refresh your knowledge of it. Very informative class and the instructor is very knowledgeable and entertaining.

Fantastic information. Presented in an informative and educational way. Learned a lot! Especially how embarrassingly wrong our agency had been teaching previously, with regard to consensual encounters.

I appreciate the law enforcement way of explaining the material and not in a complicated legal terms or an attorney ‘s definition

Excellent class

This course changed the way I write report!

Clear and concise, even made things fun with videos. All around excellent job and I believe it will help me throughout my career as a LEO.

This is a great class, not grammar and spelling, but real report writing. Articulation, format, using case law, and more. It is now a staple for my trainees. One day will be set aside their first month on training to take this class.

Very helpful and informative

I really enjoyed the entirety of the course, One idea that may have been valuable to myself and likely others would be to have more practice exercises in rewriting example sentences. Thank you, I feel better prepared to do my job as a law enforcement officer.

The course is helpful.

Very informative class to improve my writing and articulated skills. Love the exercises and the interactive portions of the class!

Very informative and well put together. This class is great for officer's who struggle, or who may need improvement with their report writing.

This was a good training for all experience levels. Good reminders on articulating elements of crimes, and good suggestions on how to write better reports. I would absolutely recommend this training to others. Thank you!

Very interactive and great training. Lots of details to keep in mind when articulating events in a report.

very great course and the things that you are pointing out are amazing

This course made me a better report writer, because it help me to better articulate myself, and to structure my report in a logical manner. I think every officer should be required to take this class.

100% recommended this course

I attended the Bullet Proof Report Writing course in Henderson this week. Having never bought into the bare minimum amount of training per year, I have invested good deal of my free time taking courses over the last 30 years. I found the recent course in Henderson to one , if not the best organized and best presented, I have ever taken. I felt my time was well vested. I look forward to trying out some of the webinars next.

Great courses, great instructor. A lot of good information has been given to me that I will take back with me and apply them in the field. Would definitely recommend blue to gold to any LEO.

The book was filled with knowledge to help and understand the class and further my skills to write. The class was more based on the 4th amendment than being a better report writer.

I enjoyed the class very much. I haven’t been through field training yet, but I feel that this has better prepared me in the one aspect I have been most worried about

The course was very helpful and educational. A lot of good information was presented.

Very in-depth. Good review of case law. The videos were good. 15 minute longer lunch would be nice.

Bulletproof Report Writing: The class was very informative on how to write reports that are concise, persuasive, and easy to follow. The instructor was passionate about the material that he taught and was able to convey the information in a relatable way.

Extremely informative and helpful. I enjoy writing reports and this gave me good details for how to improve.

A really great class !!!

The report writing course helped me understand how to write my reports with more pertinent details and format them to be easier to read.

Bulletproof report writing is a very good class. Wiehn is a very good speaker/instructor

I attended the report writing class. I expected to be bored, but I was surprised by how well put together the class was and how entertaining the instructor made a very dry subject. I highly recommend taking the Bullet-proof Report Writing.

Really good class! Helped me learn how to re-word and structure my report.

Great class and knowledge. Will be looking forward to purchasing additional book materials. Thank you!

The class was really helpful. The instructor has a large variety of materials to explain. I would recommend it to fellow law enforcement officers.

Great knowledge. Amazing instructor. I would definitely suggest this to fellow employees.

Very useful class along with the book. Changes your perspective on writing more detailed reports and avoiding getting caught up by a defense attorney's questions.

This course was great! The instructor was great in explaining everything

It is an amazing course, I learned a lot.

Fantastic class that helps officers understand complex scenarios and proper phrasing that helps articulate facts and reasoning.

The bulletproof report writing course was very informative and some of the best training I’ve had. The instructor was very professional and should get a raise.

Took the Bulletproof Report writing class and it was great, very informative, and a lot of useful information. Will definitely recommend to other officers.

The observation videos were a great way to put instruction into practice. I enjoyed and learned from all three classes and definitely will recommend them to my department.

Report Writing. Amazing presentation! Instructor was well versed and extremely knowledgeable!

The instructor was well-educated in the field of report writing. The observation exercises were great and getting you to pay attention in greater detail. Overall great training to attend.

Report writing. The class was informative, insightful, well-prepared, and rambunctiously taught.

This class was amazing, I was struggling on how to articulate. With this class I have a better understanding on how to articulate what I have seen.

Extremely helpful in reviewing and learning new and better ways to write reports.

Great class that focuses on report writing through correct articulation of facts and supporting case law.

Extremely valuable information, no matter what class you take! A must for all LE who want to progress their on-the-job knowledge!

The material was easy to follow, speaker made the class interesting and relevant to LE

Really good class. Really enjoyed the information and made it easy to understand with the real-life scenarios. Made me think about my articulation and to focus and list all observations made.

I enjoyed all the classes by Blue To Gold so far! The deep dive into how our legal system interprets our actions and how we can better explain our actions is literal gold. The understanding the classes teach leads to a better application of the law and thus a better understanding of it as well. I hope to see more classes from Blue to Gold offered to my agency and fellow officers in Colorado.

Bullet proof report writing. Overall entertaining course making valid arguments. Not only did it teach on how to write reports, but also how to conduct investigations.

Bulletproof report writing class was an excellent class on different examples that law enforcement utilizing 3 Golden Rules of report writing and the use of the acronym N.E.R.D.S.

Bullet Proof Report Writing. Great Class for new officers and Officers with years of experience.

I recently attended a Bulletproof report writing class that exceeded my expectations. The class was not only informative but also engaging and enjoyable. The instructor’s knowledge and ability to keep us engaged was remarkable. His humor added an extra layer of enjoyment to the learning experience. I’ve gained valuable insights and skills that I’m eager to bring back to my division. Highly recommended!

The way this class was taught and presented needs to be in the academy. This should be required training for Feild Training Officers teaching Officers In Training how to write reports. I had report write explained in so many different ways that I struggled to write clear and concise reports. This class is going to help improve greatly!

Report writing....I think this class had a lot of great information related to report writing. The information was easy to comprehend. I think there was a decent amount of search and seizure topics, maybe some of that can be scaled back. The book is a cherry on top! Thank you!

Bulletproof report writing class went in extreme depth into one of the most important aspects of my job as a deputy

This course allowed me to reflect on previous reports I had written that resulted in undesirable results and the reasons why they were unsuccessful.

I am a dispatcher, but I thought this class was full of good information.. I gained a lot of Information and will be using it on how I write my trainee dailies.. Thank you!!

I just completed report writing and really good presentation and made me more confident writing a report and helped me know what to write and what the prosecutors are looking for. After finishing this class, I realized I left a lot of “meat off the bone” on reports and surprised I haven’t been called to court with my lack of detail in my reports. Thank you BLUE TO GOLD

Awesome examples of case law and other officer’s reports that we can learn from

The course was great, I learned what and how to articulate better, which is what I believe some deputies don't know but I will recommend this course!

Great information that will help in future with not only my reports but reading over and teaching my OITs with their reports.

Great course very good information, new academy’s need a day of this course on top of their current report writing course

Great.

This class had very good information and it will be helpful moving forward. This kind of stuff is what I build my professionalism around. I am not the biggest person in law enforcement and this kind of stuff seems to help me more than people understand. It's helped me in so many different situations. I appreciate how you taught the class it kept me focused.

Very helpful, thank you

Thank You for the mindful videos and learning modules

The instructor did a great job presenting the material.

Another great class. I appreciate being talked to like a cop.

Very informative, well worth it!

Exceptional! Highly recommend to all.

These techniques can be used at work or at home.

Thanks for the training, it was great, and I learned a great deal of new information and ways to better communicate with people.

Course was awesome.

I really liked this class. It was very informative and I feel better prepared.

When I was forced to complete this training I was a little annoyed I had to watch 4 hours worth of video. As the training went on I actually learned a lot. It was great information, provided great tips and tricks, the instructor was chill and appeared to be himself and wasn't being too professional for the camera. It was a great training.

This course was actually very good. I went into it with low expectations because web-based training can be rough, however, the instructor was engaging, articulate, funny, and on point. The videos were great. The subject's relevance to current events was definitely helpful. I would recommend this course to anyone in need of some good de-escalation training.

All 4 classes I took were amazing. They were packed with all kinds of useful modern-day information, and the instructor did it in a way that kept the class engaged. Would recommend it to everyone in law enforcement.

Another great set of classes. We are mandated to take de-escalation and duty to intervene classes here, but BtG made a very dry subject into one that was not only palatable but enjoyable! John Wiehn was an excellent instructor and an expert on the subject matter. Plenty of good videos and cop anecdotes kept things engaging as well. 10/10 would go to any BtG training if they are as good as these two classes.

Great real-life training. The presenter was engaged and knowledgeable of the course data.

I was a part of the de-escalation training module. It was absolutely outstanding, the instructor was highly knowledgeable and easy to follow along with. I would highly recommend this course to anyone.

Real World De-escalation: Incredibly relevant and applicable. It’s great to hear this sort of training from those who have backgrounds as LE and attorneys.

I’m still quite new to law enforcement so sitting in the de-escalation class was very informative. It explains some ways that I can better explain things to try and de-escalate a situation. However, it also explains that not all situations are able to be de-escalated. Which made me feel more confident in judging if a situation will be able to be de-escalated or not.

De-escalation This class was incredible. I really appreciated the videos that incorporated real-life situations in which the techniques were applied. Our instructor did an awesome job conveying the material.

Great class, you could tell the instructor loves what he does. A lot of great examples of do’s and don’t do.

Just attended the de-escalation class and it was a great and informative class. The class had a lot of discussion and made you think about how you do your job and can increase your overall success in situations. Would highly recommend it!

Good class about de-escalation

This de-escalation class greatly helped in reviewing and informing officers of great de-escalation tactics to employ and the situations in which they should be employed. The instructor did a great job at presenting the material and showed videos that provided conversations and how they relate to the de-escalation principles.

De-escalation class. The class was very in-depth in providing step-by-step processes to effectively de-escalate and non-escalate some situations that it is appropriate to utilize. The instructor having both LE and legal experience provided two different points of view on situations that are pivotal in how situations can proceed.

It’s really good training and very informative. More than most training, real-life scenarios and footage were used.

Good training, good instructor. I attended bulletproof writing, search & seizure, duty to intervene & de-escalation

Class should be mandated for all departments

Best course.

Overall a very informative class. Thank You

This course was very easy to follow and created an informative & educational building block which every law enforcement agency should build upon. As dynamic as public safety is, the importance of building trust and partnerships with the community are invaluable. The only way for LEO to conduct themselves is from a professional standard.

Moral class that all police officer should take

I have a whole new understanding of the Duty to Intervene. Which is to say I had no prior understanding of the Duty to Intervene. This course should be mandatory.

Clear and concise presentation of essential information about active intervention that is critical to the success of public safety. Very well done.

Thank you for putting together a great course. We all appreciate it!

The material presented and examples given were outstanding an on point.

Great content and great presenter!

This course would make an excellent requirement for all supervisors and line officers in any police department or any other agency with arrest powers.

Great training for officers of all levels.

An outstanding review of when and how to intervene before a situation goes sideways. The attached cases for each section provide excellent information to put the topic into context.

This is an amazing class, that could save your career if a time arises where you have to intervene in a situation. Rookies, FTO's, and Supervisor's should all take this class.

very helpful information in the performance of the duties.

Exceptional! A must for supervisors to pass along to their subordinates and save their careers.

Great, fully comprehensive classes. Very engaging with real-world, modern-day applications.

Good class and good information

I am a supervisory special agent with the FDA Office of Criminal Investigations assigned to Headquarters. Our office recently acquired your training portals regarding Duty to Intervene and Real World De-escalation. I have been a federal law enforcement officer for 33 years- and I want to express my appreciation for a very well-put-together program. Things have changed over the time I have served in law enforcement and I think your program effectively confronts the issues that we as law enforcement professionals must cope with. I am assigned to headquarters, but some of the things you address (especially in the Real World De-escalation portal) are measures that I can consider practicing with the management of my own staff in the office setting. Again—thank you and thanks for making us better law enforcement personnel!
