amazing instructor! The classes were some of the best I have taken to date. Very knowledgeable and information was state relevant. Highly recommend!
I took the class on K9 case law. Chris was very knowledgeable on the topic. He’s very well spoken and would recommend this class not to just K9 handlers but to any officer regardless of rank.
Great instruction! If you work in NJ, I would highly recommend taking this class. Chirs did a great job presenting material that correlates directly to NJ Case Law.
Chris was very knowledgeable on the topic, I was only in one day of the tree day course and wish I had been signed up for more. The search and seizure section was well organized and very informative. Chris was able to answer all questions we had on the subject.
Thank you!!!! For sending Chris as the instructor for the classes. He was OUTSTANDING!!!! A credit to law enforcement. In all my years of bringing training to Passaic County, I have to say he is one of the best. Brilliant and engaging!

Our Advanced Search and Seizure training is designed to equip officers with the knowledge and skills they need to independently analyze and solve Fourth Amendment problems, leading to a reduction in lawsuits and the ability to establish good case law. By the end of this course, students will have a solid understanding of when the Fourth Amendment applies, the requirement of consent, recognized exceptions, and the necessity of a warrant for every search or seizure.
The prerequisites, Advanced Search and Seizure, Advanced Traffic Stops and Advanced Criminal Investigation are the training all Law Enforcement should have to answer the "why" in much of what we do. Blue to Gold then expands further on this with CSSI. John Wiehn had an unmeasurable ability to make the content entertaining and palatable. I couldn't have imagined a better training for the intended purpose.
This was a great course- building upon principles which everyday officers are enacting. The knowledge gained clarifies the ability and understanding of the “why” officers do certain things, and the “how” to properly do them; avoiding liability and penalty.
I attended the advanced search and seizure course with John Wiehn. He did a great job explaining different case laws to us and making sure we had an understanding of everything he was teaching us. Every law enforcement professional should take this course. We are all one call away from being case law ourselves and this course will protect you from that. Even though John is an attorney he keeps the class interesting and encourages questions as he was a cop himself not that long ago.
Advanced Search and Seizure training taught by John Wiehn is easily the best SaS training I have ever received. Well done! My first blue to gold training and I will be seeking out more. Thank you!
Wonderful class great instructor

With K9 Case Law, you’ll have the knowledge and skills you need to navigate the complex legal landscape of K9 deployment with ease
This is more than just a K9 case law class! It covers every word of the 4th Amendment in detail! This class will give you a whole new look on search and seizure and case law to support the information given to you. This class contains great information for new K-9 handlers, but also great information if you are not a K-9 handler. Having a hard time articulating R.S. to hold a person for a K9 on a traffic stop? Look no farther for training, and take this class!
I thought this was great. I've only been a handler for six months and while my K9 school was awesome for the hands-on portion this course really closed the loop on the legal and administrative aspects. I very much enjoyed the course and I highly recommend it!
I have taken several in-person trainings and online through Blue to Gold. All the classes are extremely beneficial and contain the information needed. Great job and keep up the great work. I look forward to future trainings and I make sure to spread the word with my agency and others about the benefits.
Excellent course. Lots of beneficial information with the ability to go back and review.
Michael Nipper2024-05-14Great class everyone that’s wants a basic understanding on how and when to run a K9 should take this class.Mike Trenkle2024-05-12Good information on 1 st amendment with cop and cameras. Thanks for taking the time to make us better officers.Marc Wolfe2024-05-12Blue 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.

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!Patrick Howle2024-04-17It’s fascinating to learn about the diverse ways different police departments operate across various states. Each one has its unique procedures, challenges, and approaches to maintaining safety and order.oscar perez2024-04-17Great training that was very beneficial and clearly explained.
