This class is a deep dive into street level proactive policing tactics. Considered by many as the all-encompassing guide for patrol officers looking to reach their potential, every single block of instruction covered is essential to being a multi-dimensional proactive officer on patrol. This course provides the tools and the game plan to the attendee, so that they will leave at the end of the day and be an effective police officer against the criminal element, every single shift. The skills and tactics taught here are universal in police work across the world, as the class does not spend time on state-specific traffic code, penal code, or state-specific case law.
Throughout the entire class, the attendee can expect to be a part of an intense, rapid-fire exposure to successful street level interdiction tactics, having a front seat ride for it as they will analyze and break-down numerous police body worn camera videos with the instructor and gain repeated mental repetitions, making these mental experiences their own.
This class provides a different experience for the attendee from any other class out there, being considered a virtual proactive field-training type experience. Instructor Craig Meyer methodically breaks down the different blocks of instruction so that each one builds on the next in what he refers to as, building the layers of the proactive pyramid from the bottom up. Specifically, the attendee will become versed in the role of the limbic system with respect to freeze, flight, and fight, verbal and nonverbal distancing behaviors, stress indicators and pacifying behaviors and pre-flight and pre-assault indicators. These layers will be explained by showing countless examples of pedestrian, bicycle and vehicle stops, breaking them down so the attendee understands how to work through them successfully from start to finish. The attendee will be shown how to legally as well as successfully navigate through developing reasonable articulable suspicion, how to conduct roadside interviews, how to build rapport, gain admissions of probable cause and gain consent, as well as how to work through the times when consent is denied and R.A.S. is present.
This course takes on the role of the virtual FTO, providing the attendee the skills and tactics that are critical for them as an officer, to successfully go out and interdict crime at the street level. This course has an equal focus on providing the attendee with officer safety tactics that are imperative for increasing the survival rate of an on-the-job assault as well as the skills and knowledge to see them coming before it is too late. This is primarily achieved through what Meyer refers to as a combination of Perception Fieldcraft and Impression Management which comes into play on every stop made.
Instructor Craig Meyer stands behind his “lead from the front” mentality as a supervisor, prioritizes developing his people and believes in fulfilling his greater purpose of helping officers all over the country achieve success in employing proactive policing tactics. This course is essential whether you are just getting out of academy and picking up new tools or have been on the street for several years and are sharpening the ones you already have.

K9 Review
Loved this class. For me it was the missing puzzle piece. Love the articulation of behaviors. Definitely gives you tips and tricks. Amazing course canโt wait to attend the in person course.
I have taken several proactive policing courses and Craig's class is the best out there. It was the best when he was with his last company, and its even better with Blue to Gold. Its been refined and organized since then. He explains everything well and shows you real life examples over and over. When you complete this class, you will see what you have been overlooking all this time. This also includes indicators of dangerous intentions. There is no other class I have seen that offers this quality of content on the subject of criminal interdiction. It will make you a better cop and could save lives.
I've been doing proactive law enforcement work for some time now, but was able to learn new tactics and behaviors to look for! Cannot wait to get back on shift!
I considered myself a traffic cop prior to this course...speeding, seatbelts, petty stuff. Immediately began seeing these reactions to my presence. This course opened up a whole new world of policing for me. Can't recommend it enough for guys that think they are proactive.
I've been an officer for 12 years, This by far is the best training I have ever received! I now have more clarity, confidence, and courage to perform my duties as a officer. I have had FTO's that didn't move the needle. I've had FTO that couldn't explain R.AS. or P.C or refuse to answer questions because, they didn't know the answer. Which in my opinion hinder officers being proactive. This course should be a staple. If I ever become a FTO I would purchase this course for the officers that would be trained by me. This course should added to FTO training across the U.S. this course saves lives. Thank you Sir!
Just good street cop skills and how to apply and articulate them!
The information provided is great for new officers trying to find ways to be confident in their proactive work. It is also a great refresher and reminder to experienced officers that may overlook those basics!
The course builds a strong foundation for the basis of stops and makes me really want to take the deep dive into the behavior of individuals outside of their pre-stop movements and actions.
Wow. What a great crash course! Every beat cop needs this course!
Hands down the best training out there. Second time taking it and will take again!
For Officers in inner cities, this is the perfect course and instructor to learn from

This is by far the best class that I have taken for my career. Craig is a fantastic teacher and makes this course very enjoyable. Not even a day after completing this course, I have already observed all of these behaviors on the road! Even got 2.4g of fentanyl off a stop while given consent from tips he mentioned in this course. You are doing yourself a disservice by not taking this.

Craig Meyer has been a certified Peace Officer since 2013. He began his career in Somerset County, New Jersey where he graduated the police academy and then worked for two different municipal police departments from 2013-2017. At the end of 2017, Meyer transferred to the State of Texas to work with a municipal police department.
Since transferring to Texas, Meyer has promoted to the role of Sergeant. During his time in Texas he has held the positions of Patrol Sergeant, Field Training Program Coordinator and SWAT Team Leader. Meyer stands behind his โlead from the frontโ mentality as a supervisor, prioritizes developing his people and believes in fulfilling his greater purpose of helping officers all over the country achieve success in employing proactive policing tactics.
As an instructor, Meyer has been credited by thousands of police officers across North America and Canada for having created a lecture based presentation that has successfully broken down and explained the human limbic system as it applies to behaviors commonly displayed by criminals, in a way that can be easily comprehended and then immediately applied at the street level by police officers for success. Meyer is still a proactive Sergeant and continues to employ the same tactics and training taught in class, in the field with his own team of officers.
