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 ... Read more...
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.
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.
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.
You’ll come away motivated and hyped to go be a proactive cop no matter how many years you have on. Sgt. Meyer does a great job breaking down a ton of videos. Seeing this behavior will become second nature. Best class I’ve ever taken. Thank you Sgt. Meyer!
I took Craig Meyer’s class before he became part of Blue to Gold, and I have to say it has significantly improved my game. After taking his class, I started recognizing clusters of indicators and began to see better results during my stops. For those whose agencies won’t invest in their training, you need to invest in yourself. The only way to become successful in this career is to take the initiative. Don’t wait for someone else to do it for you. I highly recommend Craig’s class.
Who knew it was physically possible to cram such a wealth of information into a 1 hour block? Great info, love the videos to demonstrate the topics discussed and looking forward to taking the full on-demand version soon. Thank you Craig and the BTG team for this awesome webinar!
Instructor's appearance, attitude and command of the topic give him the credibility I am looking for out of an instructor. So many courses are taught from a book by someone that's had limited experience on the road. Bravo! I will be a part of the live course.
This mini course gets down to the very basis of criminal behavior and what we need to look for to intercept criminals and make our communities safer. Craig is an amazing instructor and his presentation is on par! I would recommend this class from patrol to investigations.
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.

Mastering Proactive Policing For Patrol

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.
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.

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

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.

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 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!
