Incredible class. I used the Search and Seizure Survival Guide for 4 years prior to this class. This class dove deeper into a crucial subject for all officers, and provided a more in depth understanding.

Mastering Search and Seizure was an eye opening class and allowed me to look at search and seizure in a new light. I had nothing to compare it to when learning about 4th amendment in the academy, but now that I have some experience it helps me know why I can do what I do.

Great course with extremely useful information. All our K9 members will go through this training!

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.

Great.

This class had very good information and it will be helpful moving forward. This kind of stuff is what I build my professionalism around. I am not the biggest person in law enforcement and this kind of stuff seems to help me more than people understand. It's helped me in so many different situations. I appreciate how you taught the class it kept me focused.

Very helpful, thank you

Thank You for the mindful videos and learning modules

The instructor did a great job presenting the material.

Another great class. I appreciate being talked to like a cop.

Very informative, well worth it!

Exceptional! Highly recommend to all.

These techniques can be used at work or at home.

Thanks for the training, it was great, and I learned a great deal of new information and ways to better communicate with people.

Course was awesome.

I really liked this class. It was very informative and I feel better prepared.

When I was forced to complete this training I was a little annoyed I had to watch 4 hours worth of video. As the training went on I actually learned a lot. It was great information, provided great tips and tricks, the instructor was chill and appeared to be himself and wasn't being too professional for the camera. It was a great training.

This course was actually very good. I went into it with low expectations because web-based training can be rough, however, the instructor was engaging, articulate, funny, and on point. The videos were great. The subject's relevance to current events was definitely helpful. I would recommend this course to anyone in need of some good de-escalation training.

All 4 classes I took were amazing. They were packed with all kinds of useful modern-day information, and the instructor did it in a way that kept the class engaged. Would recommend it to everyone in law enforcement.

Another great set of classes. We are mandated to take de-escalation and duty to intervene classes here, but BtG made a very dry subject into one that was not only palatable but enjoyable! John Wiehn was an excellent instructor and an expert on the subject matter. Plenty of good videos and cop anecdotes kept things engaging as well. 10/10 would go to any BtG training if they are as good as these two classes.

Great real-life training. The presenter was engaged and knowledgeable of the course data.

I was a part of the de-escalation training module. It was absolutely outstanding, the instructor was highly knowledgeable and easy to follow along with. I would highly recommend this course to anyone.

Real World De-escalation: Incredibly relevant and applicable. It’s great to hear this sort of training from those who have backgrounds as LE and attorneys.

I’m still quite new to law enforcement so sitting in the de-escalation class was very informative. It explains some ways that I can better explain things to try and de-escalate a situation. However, it also explains that not all situations are able to be de-escalated. Which made me feel more confident in judging if a situation will be able to be de-escalated or not.

De-escalation This class was incredible. I really appreciated the videos that incorporated real-life situations in which the techniques were applied. Our instructor did an awesome job conveying the material.

Great class, you could tell the instructor loves what he does. A lot of great examples of do’s and don’t do.

Just attended the de-escalation class and it was a great and informative class. The class had a lot of discussion and made you think about how you do your job and can increase your overall success in situations. Would highly recommend it!

Good class about de-escalation

This de-escalation class greatly helped in reviewing and informing officers of great de-escalation tactics to employ and the situations in which they should be employed. The instructor did a great job at presenting the material and showed videos that provided conversations and how they relate to the de-escalation principles.

De-escalation class. The class was very in-depth in providing step-by-step processes to effectively de-escalate and non-escalate some situations that it is appropriate to utilize. The instructor having both LE and legal experience provided two different points of view on situations that are pivotal in how situations can proceed.

It’s really good training and very informative. More than most training, real-life scenarios and footage were used.

Good training, good instructor. I attended bulletproof writing, search & seizure, duty to intervene & de-escalation

Class should be mandated for all departments

Best course.

Overall a very informative class. Thank You

This course was very easy to follow and created an informative & educational building block which every law enforcement agency should build upon. As dynamic as public safety is, the importance of building trust and partnerships with the community are invaluable. The only way for LEO to conduct themselves is from a professional standard.

Moral class that all police officer should take

I have a whole new understanding of the Duty to Intervene. Which is to say I had no prior understanding of the Duty to Intervene. This course should be mandatory.

Clear and concise presentation of essential information about active intervention that is critical to the success of public safety. Very well done.

Thank you for putting together a great course. We all appreciate it!

The material presented and examples given were outstanding an on point.

Great content and great presenter!

This course would make an excellent requirement for all supervisors and line officers in any police department or any other agency with arrest powers.

Great training for officers of all levels.

An outstanding review of when and how to intervene before a situation goes sideways. The attached cases for each section provide excellent information to put the topic into context.

This is an amazing class, that could save your career if a time arises where you have to intervene in a situation. Rookies, FTO's, and Supervisor's should all take this class.

very helpful information in the performance of the duties.

Exceptional! A must for supervisors to pass along to their subordinates and save their careers.

Great, fully comprehensive classes. Very engaging with real-world, modern-day applications.

Good class and good information

I am a supervisory special agent with the FDA Office of Criminal Investigations assigned to Headquarters. Our office recently acquired your training portals regarding Duty to Intervene and Real World De-escalation. I have been a federal law enforcement officer for 33 years- and I want to express my appreciation for a very well-put-together program. Things have changed over the time I have served in law enforcement and I think your program effectively confronts the issues that we as law enforcement professionals must cope with. I am assigned to headquarters, but some of the things you address (especially in the Real World De-escalation portal) are measures that I can consider practicing with the management of my own staff in the office setting. Again—thank you and thanks for making us better law enforcement personnel!
