In 2022 there were many fresh changes to our certification programs. For starters, the CDT 2 day module has been revamped into a 3 day module to include
Control Tactics System
Defense Tactics System
Handcuffing Fundamentals
Ground Fundamentals
In reality, the number of hours are the same, though the training package has been streamlined using modern teaching methods to help in the retention of techniques and skills. This has been in the works for several years with influence by many NLETC National Instructors.
You will find that many other things such as officer size and growing trends in Law Enforcement have been addressed. This new course is entitled, Core Essentials and includes three certifications (Control Tactics, Defense Tactics & Handcuffing Fundamentals). The curriculum has been adjusted to reflect things such as officer height and build which was not as much of a concern in the 1970's when agencies had strict height and weight requirements. Trends in law enforcement such as the publics infatuation with MMA and ground fighting are being addressed.
​Equipment needed: Casual or athletic clothing, mat shoe footwear OR you may train in socks when on the mats.
Materials provided: Text and trainer shirt.
