(In-Person) Inspector Safety Training

Description

This training is a 1 ½ day course, focused on field safety. Participants will learn how to recognize incidents that require de-escalation.  They will learn techniques to help deflect and redirect assault in the field through a better understanding of intent, body language, and appropriate responses.  The course will discuss situations an inspector could be faced with in the field, help inspectors with threat recognition and teach techniques to deal with these situations and stay safe. An attorney segment will help inspectors gain a better understanding of their respective inspection authority and will also discuss general criminal conduct of which inspectors should be aware (i.e. threats, intimidation, assault/battery, etc.).  There will be a block on Sovereign Citizens which will help someone recognize when they could be dealing with a Sovereign.  There will also be a discussion of First Amendment Auditors.

Similar to the Western States Project Verbal Judo®training, this course will include lots of class interaction and discussion.  A number of videos will be shown showing “real life” stories inspectors have faced in the field, what happened, what did they learn from it, and what could have been done differently.
