1-Day Course – De-Escalation Instructor Course

This course is pending approval for North Dakota POST accreditation, and is approved for 7 Minnesota POST credits, and covers the MN POST Mandatory Learning Objective “Conflict Management and Mediation.”

In today’s societal landscape, the imperative for law enforcement to embody de-escalation techniques is undeniable. To infuse these techniques into police culture demands a concerted effort involving time, policy evolution, effective leadership, and, significantly, comprehensive training. This specialized course centers on fostering a profound understanding of de-escalation and crisis management, tailored for police officers. It equips trainers with an arsenal of tools and strategies designed to mitigate the intensity of potentially volatile encounters, enhance decision making, fortify community rapport and trust, refine communication abilities, and drive increased compliance.

Course Goals: Upon the successful completion of this course, officers will possess the ability to discern and evaluate crisis situations, wield diverse persuasive strategies for de-escalation, prioritize personal well-being and team cohesion, and adeptly guide situations away from turmoil toward rapport and voluntary cooperation.

This course will empower the student to feel prepared to bring these techniques and strategies back to their agency.
