Officers completing this course will be certified to INSTRUCT office rs in the STOPS officer survival program. \; Upon completion of the ST OPS program\, your officers will be able to execute vehicle stops SAFELY\, pedestrian contacts\, commercial vehicle stops\, vehicle extractions\, dr ug interdiction stops\, and high-risk (felony) stops. \; Officers will be trained in risk assessments and proven methods to counter felonious an d accidental assaults. \; Vehicle stops will be broken into 12 ambush zones for the officer to be aware of and escape techniques to counter assa ults.The STOPS program is based on research from officers injured or kille d in the line of duty. \; We then developed strategies and tactics tha t countered the assaults\, significantly increasing the officer’s survival probability. \; The STOPS program is nationally and internationally r ecognized as the leading program in tactical/officer survival training ava ilable.Vehicle stops will be divided into low-risk\, unknown-risk\, and hi gh-risk. \; Each category has pre-planned options to minimize the chan ces of being assaulted by both accidental and felonious means.  \;The officer’s goal during the course is to always think about the safest way t o deal with every situation while recognizing danger cues.  \;STOPS st udents will dominate through superior training and a warrior mindset when an assault is attempted.STOPS training is realistic with both classroom an d dynamic field exercises. \; These classes will also include our bonu s force-on-force training. \; Upon obtaining instructor-level certific ation\, instructors will be certified to teach the “STOPS Tactical” Office rs Survival System for 36 months.What will the student learn?Introduction to Strategies &\;
