Seconds for Survival

The dangers of law enforcement interactions with suspects have increased dramatically in recent years and there is an urgent need to combat what has become deadly consequences for the profession. “Seconds for Survival” is a dynamic, media intensive course designed to reduce the reactionary gap that can lead to deadly consequences in these law enforcement interactions.

This science-based seminar provides attendees with the tools necessary to eliminate the deadly reactionary gap with suspects and provides the tools to get ahead of a pending violent attack. Action always beats reaction, and this seminar places the action on the law enforcement professional by providing a detailed insight into human behavior pattern and analysis along with the tactical considerations when pre-incident indicators are recognized.

Here are just some of the important topics taught in “Seconds for Survival.”

  • Pre-Incident Indicators
  • The Danger of Denial
  • Body Language Clues for Danger
  • The “Left of Bang” Philosophy
  • The Power of “Intuition”
  • The “Deadly Mix”
  • De-Escalation Tactics
  • From Anomaly to the Threat
  • Successful Performance Under Stress

Blue to Good Law Enforcement Training is great all around from their training course to their customer service. I ordered a package book set and in the set they sent me one of the wrong books which I reached out about. Richard Bandiero immediately got back to me and sent out the correct book. Richard was extremely helpful and professional in a timely manner.

I attended the ND Southwest Crime Conference. The Conference was phenomenal. Anthony knew how to engage the classroom. All of the training he provided was by far the best training I have ever been to so far. Blue to Gold definitely knows their stuff and can possibly shape the way we do our jobs as modern police!
