Despite the rise in popularity of de-escalation tactics and policies, there is very little research on de-escalation training in policing. In addition, there is no agreed-upon definition of de-escalation, and the exact approach and the tactics associated with it can vary dramatically. This course begins with a discussion on the central role of force and the foundations of de-escalation. It moves onto various officer perceptions of de-escalation and finishes with how agency supervisors and trainers must ensure that staff know how they are expected to carry out the de-escalation language found in policy.
TOPICS INCLUDE:
- Principles that ground de-escalation in policing
- Core values central to de-escalation
- Common components of de-escalation training
