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.
I am in Alaska and the area where I work covers 187 highway miles, with 4 communities. I frequently work solo with the nearest unit on duty 150 miles away. With that said the behavior identification is important. Some of the ideas with 2 officer contact I have to modify to be able to safely work the situation. The specific title of the behavior is helpful in articulating the behavior.
Excellent Course. I have attended an inhouse Street Cop Training Course, which contained some similar information. However I found that this particular course was superior in the tone and disbursement of that information. I feel like this course not only refreshed me up on skills sets but also showed even more such as the tactics for foot patrol. As a Lieutenant at my department I know that I will be recommending this course for all of the officers on my shift because if they take it seriously and go out and try to look for the highlighted behaviors they will be able to get results.
Everyone needs this class. I’ve taken other proactive patrol classes and it’s the same thing. Always what to look for but never why criminals react that way. Craig Meyer does a great job at explaining the why which helps a lot in court.
GREAT FOR ALL EXPERIENCE LEVELS. SHOULD BE MANDATORY FOR ALL NEW OFFICERS.
I took your full version in person in 2023, and this was a great refresher. Thank you for the knowledge!
I watched half of your class on a detail I was working on and then the next night went in on my normal shift. That night on my shift I stopped 3 cars total. The first car I stopped I got was a guy with a 13 year old active warrant from a neighboring county. While speaking with him he said he had been living in the area for nine years and no one has ever stopped him. The third car I stopped I ended up developing a PC for and got a possession of cocaine and meth as well as a violation of probation. Since I have taken and finished the course I have been finding more crime mainly on the lower level but the reaction and behaviors are very interesting. Just wanted to say thank you, at the agency I work at there is an expectation for proactive police work but no one truly shows you what to look for. I was considering leaving the profession and I truly believe that this course has saved my career. Thank you.
Outstanding class, so many practical lessons and strategies he shares to catch criminals.
Helped me not only get some of my best arrests but gave me the knowledge and tactics to stay alive.
I absolutely love this class! I learn something from it everytime I watch it. My time is about to run out and I super thankful for the employees at blue to gold to allow me an extension to watch it. I will be purchasing it again to watch once more. Thanks again!
I am about to hit my 3 year mark in law enforcement. I used to just stop everything and drive an unmarked unit. Now I have begun to be more selective with my stops and switched to a marked unit. I was only a few modules in the other day when I had a stop with a cluster of behaviors. I ended up flipping my driver on misdemeanor charges for information on drug dealers, and I know that is just the tip of what is to come. The new guy on my shift was my backup and he was amazed at what he watched, and now he wants to learn. I think of all the times I saw these behaviors and let them go because I had no idea what I was looking at or how to articulate it to those who also did not understand. I can confidently say I feel much stronger in my enforcement, lengthening the detention by building RAS through behaviors, articulating what I'm seeing, and getting more quality arrests. I can't recommend this course enough, I can't wait to take it in person in February. In a world of chess versus checkers, this is a grandmaster class.
Why Isnt This Being Taught at At Academy Level Amazing class. Humble Instructor. This class really highlights trends, behaviors, and tactics officers need to be aware of and utilizing at all times. Hopefully i’ll get to take it in person one day. Worth the money to have access to this plethora of information.
Took his class in person and his online class was just as outstanding. Thorough and in depth, truly took his time with both his in person and online class to make it a great learning experience.
Awesome class, constantly recommend it to all my colleagues.
Excellent course, very descriptive. The only class that I’ve taken which is relevant to being proactive off the interstates. I would recommend it to anyone and everyone
I really appreciated how Craig, the instructor, brought science into the discussion, especially when he touched on the sympathetic nervous system and its role in policing. It’s not something you often hear about, but it made a lot of sense when he explained how understanding this can improve how officers respond in high-stress situations. What stood out the most was how Craig didn’t just talk about these concepts—he showed us how they’re being applied in his own department. He used bodycam footage from his team to demonstrate that these strategies aren’t just theories; they actually work. Seeing real-world examples of these techniques in action was both reassuring and inspiring. Overall, I found the course incredibly valuable. It was a great mix of scientific insight and practical application, showing how proactive policing can be more effective when backed by an understanding of human behavior.
Hands down one of the best trainings B2G has featured. The amount of valuable content Craig has packed into this course is impressive. These eight hours of training flew by and I couldn’t get enough. For Officers wanting to be proactive and keep their lives in the process of arresting hard criminals, this class is a must have. Craig breaks down foundational elements to beat cop work that will not only save your life but make you a master of proactive patrol work.
Phenomenal class. This should be a requirement for patrol officers.
Excellent course for patrol officers
This is by far one of the best patrol-oriented trainings I've received. I took the on-demand course (online). At first, I was hesitant because I've taken other online courses from different companies and they kinda… sucked. But man, am I glad I took this class. It was like I was sitting in the actual class. Craig does an excellent job explaining everything and has a plethora of videos to show a step-by-step process. The tactics and methods on identifying behavior have ultimately changed the way that Im proactive. I can't unsee these things now and it feels so good seeing all the behaviors that were taught cause you KNOW you have something good. Its awesome. I strongly recommend taking this course. You'll learn a lot.
While this is a very fast paced course it’s digestible. It’s helpful that you have a month to watch the webinar. The knowledge ive taken away i am sure will change my career trajectory.
Great short course to drive home observing behaviors. I would recommend this course as a refresher for well-trained cops and a must for new cops. Combine this with courses that are safety oriented, we could really save a lot of cops lives.
Excellent course, great insight and real world scenarios/examples.
This was confirmation to a lot of the things I know already but eye opening to some new reactions from criminals.
This class should be required for patrol level officers. It will change the way you police. I highly recommend the full on-demand version.
I cannot wait for this course to get close to NOLA! Learn a tremendous amount as a new officer in just one hour!
Very good class. It appears that it doesn't matter if your new or 25+ yrs on. Excellent starter for someone 1-2yrs and great reminder of things experienced Officers have. During the this one hour webinar I took 3 pages of notes and fulled my toolbelt up with several things to take away and use. Great Job
Engaging, entertaining and great content. Highly recommend!
Great information on behavior ques and things to look for while driving, parked, and pedestrian stops. With it being a mini still covers all the stops we face in patrol. Well narrated and discussed!!
Amazing Will come in handy
Great basic proactive course for any officer - will recommend.
Outstanding intro. I recommend anyone take it.
This course was very informative on keeping an eye out for the little things you probably see everyday but overlook. Will definitely take the in-person course when it comes to my state.
I have heard about this course from other Blue to Gold instructors and they were not lying when they said it's a game changer! This has definitely opened my eyes on how to further excel in my career and survive the seemingly "average" traffic stop. Thank you, Craig and Blue to Gold for offering this as a free mini course! I will absolutely be signing up for the full in person course.
Great reinforcement of behavior to look for. I appreciate the case study examples the officer showcased.
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 can’t 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 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
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!

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.

In our fast-paced instruction, we use real-world case law to delve into the legal aspects of searches and seizures in federal and state-specific jurisdictions, with a specific focus on traffic stops. Our goal is to provide officers with a deeper understanding of important case law related to traffic stops, emphasizing the significance of consent, exceptions, and warrants in any search or seizure.
Very informative class. Highly recommend.
Great class and update to the law!!
John breaks down traffic law case law so well and makes it easy to understand. Amazing class, would recommend
Awesome course and clarifies highly contested issues within the police department. Helps provide specific direction and “why” versus the good ole “it’s the way we’ve always done things”.
Great class offering a wealth of information. Truly should be mandatory training for every agency. It takes complicated issues and makes them easy to understand.
Great class and very informative. Broke down every case law regarding the topic of traffic stop and able to provide us examples on them. I will attend again
This course is simple to understand and not overly complicated. It helped me understand traffic stops and applying the 4th Amendment in order to remain constitutional. I have a great understanding of this course and believe this course should be given to newer and experienced officers to expand their training and knowledge.
This course was a great refresher for my team.
This course was great and well put together. I was concerned with it being an on-demand course but it was as close to being inside a classroom as I've ever encountered.
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
