As a Force Science Graduate, I thought the class (Force Encounters Analysis) was great! It refreshed and reinforced many of the same principles, as the coursework is similar, but this format is easy to understand and best suited for line level and front line supervisors. Training staff will also benefit from the course and it would also serve as a great primer for those interested in attending Force Science later. As my agency's training section OIC, I will guarantee that all department trainers will be attending this course in the near future. Thank You!
I think this class should be marketed to Internal Affairs Personnel. It can help them formulate questions for interviews.
Great instruction! It put science at a level I could understand and remember, and it gave me a better understanding of force encounters.
CTI's Advanced Human Factors course is hands down the most beneficial class I have sent many of my guys through. You will walk away from this class approaching humans and aviation differently. LTC Geis' material puts the explanation in the "why" with a lot of the issues we have. I am the safety officer and use this information extensively in my investigations. CTI coursework provides a deeper, more understandable explanation to human error. We have now trained safety personnel, stands personnel, maintenance personnel, and pilots. My organization recently required all senior leaders to attend the course in order to further refine and educate our leaders. Once you are armed with this knowledge, you can approach mission planning or daily work routines at a different angle. I have sat through this class about 6 times and learn something new every time.
I attended the Human Factors in Safety Management System (SMS) Analysis course at HAI delivered by Craig E. Geis, LTC, US Army, ret. The course was excellent. I should have taken this class a while ago. I am currently an SP in my organization, and this course will continue to pay dividends for progressions to come. Additionally, there were maintainers and safety personnel there, who took away more than expected from the course.The course looked in depth on the human factors aspects of errors in aviation and ground accidents. Mr. Geis also gave examples to remedy culture, training, and mental preparedness so as to prepare for anticipated high-stress situations.From an Army perspective, he built upon the rote memorization, and gave it a better understanding and meaning of human error. He included recent examples of civilian and military accidents to show how to analyze the crews' response, not to armchair quarterback, but to provide lessons learned into accident prevention.Mr. Geis will break down the components of the brain and how it all works, so we can better understand its effects on us during extreme stress. He will show how the most advanced aviators (10,000-hour guys) make catastrophic mistakes under extremely stressful situations based on human brain functions, not skill.He will show your instructors how to change their teaching techniques so as to prepare ground and aviators alike for high-stress situations.This is a great training opportunity, and I am also guiding my command into an on-site seminar for our organization.Highly recommend this class. It will include all aspects of aviation and ground operations. Make sure you include 1st responders at your organization.
The most well-researched and factual-based police training I've been to in my entire career.
Great information that will help me much more effectively investigate all factors in use of force.
This course (Force Encounters Analysis) is extremely valuable for understanding a 360 degree perspective on analyzing use of force events.
All command officers responsible for reviewing use of force incidents need this course. (Force Encounters Analysis)
