Approval Code: Various
The Maryland State Police in partnership with the Public Safety Training Commission has made this online training module available to all law enforcement officers in Maryland through the Moodle Training Portal. This training will educate officers on Maryland's Good Samaritan law and its application to drug overdose cases. Under Maryland law, certain protections are afforded to individuals (witnesses, bystanders) who may be involved in, but render aid for an alcohol or drug overdose. This training outlines those protections and how they apply in overdose situations. This is a valuable training for any law enforcement officer, especially with the current opioid epidemic plaguing communities across the state, and can be easily completed in your station, home, or MDT in your car. This is a MPTC Certified course and 2 hours of online in-service credit is available for completion.

*Surviving a Mass Shooting: A Community Seminar
PSETC Sykesville
Fee: 149.00
Approval Code: Nt Prvded
Advertisement Only
Hosted by the Community Safety Institute
With the recent mass shootings at the outdoor concert in Las Vegas and the church in Sutherland Springs, citizens are seeking information on what to do if they should find themselves in the midst of one of these horrible attacks. John Matthews, veteran police officer, CNN News analyst and author of Mass Shootings: Six Steps to Survival will present life-saving information on tactics and techniques that citizens can use to increase
their chances of survival if they should find themselves in a mass shooting, active shooter event or terrorist attack.
Based on research of every mass shooting since 1980, along with the actions taken and decisions made by victims of these horrific attacks, Matthews has developed an easy-to-remember six-step model. This course will reveal if running is an effective tactic, or if playing dead will increase one's chances for survival. Specifically designed for law enforcement personnel, this program will teach officers how to properly instruct the Protecting Your Family in Public Places course. During this one-day course, officers will learn how to instruct community organizations, churches, and Neighborhood Watch groups in developing pre-planning activities, utilizing situational awareness skills, and teaching the ESCAPE Model in role-playing activities. Upon completion of the training, officers will be issued a Surviving Mass Shootings Seminar Edition book and credentialed into a secured portal which will allow them access to the curriculum, videos, and downloadable materials. This instructors’ portal will contain important
demographic information and case studies to enhance the instructors’ skills and provide potentially lifesaving information to the public.
For more information regarding this community seminar, please visit: communitysafetyinstitute.org/registration. Contact John Matthews (972) 576-8662 or John@csi1.org.

Field Training & Evaluation Program
PSETC Sykesville
Fee: 35.00
Approval Code: P28359
The transition from the police academy to the “real” world is a critical step in the development of law enforcement officers. The field training program is the essential link in that officer development. Field Training Program options include the traditional San Jose model; the problem solving oriented Police Training Officer Reno model; and the Proficiency field training model. The Field Training and Evaluation Program does not advocate any particular model. Instead it incorporates the best of all models in a manner that is realistic and applicable to the current environment.
This program will highlight the concepts and philosophies that emphasize the “training” role of an FTO. It is the goal of this program to inform students of the skills, knowledge and abilities that are needed to become an FTO. Initially, the program examines the roles of the field training officer – specifically, the fact that the field training officer functions as the “supervisor” of a field trainee. The program also focuses on the fact that an FTO needs to possess and demonstrate skills in leadership and delegation. Additional components of the program instruct to the following:
• Fundamentals of effective communication;
• Counseling;
• The various roles of an FTO, including the FTO as a trainer;
• Challenges facing the FTO;
• Training liability and legal issues;
• COMAR Field Training Requirements
• Ethics and Integrity
• Adult Learning
• Emotional Intelligence
• Diversity and Generational Differences
The program is a combination of classroom instructor and practical application. During the daily practical applications, students will
• Apply leadership traits and principles to an FTEP Program / training situation;
• Introduce trainee to FTEP expectations and standards;
• Rehearse counseling skills;
• Prepare a remedial training plan for a specific problem; and,
• Review evaluation instruments.

Civilian Response to Active Shooter Events (C.R.A.S.E.) Train-the-Trainer
Hosted by MD State Police
Over the past two decades, horrific mass shootings have been thrust into public consciousness. Mitigating the effects of these sudden incidents is the responsibility of those who serve in our communities’ public safety organizations. Across the nation, the average response time for law enforcement to these events is 3 minutes. While this is the best in the world, a motivated, moderately equipped suspect can inflict a great deal of destruction in that short amount of time. Our citizens deserve and expect an expeditious and effective coordinated response from public safety, however studies have shown that it is the initial actions taken by citizens immersed in an active shooter event that have the greatest impact on their survival. C.R.A.S.E. arms citizens with the information they need to know to protect themselves and others around them in those crucial first 3 minutes, should they be caught in a critical incident. The program covers the body’s disaster response system, how it affects decision-making during high-stress incidents, and how to employ the avoid-deny-defend principles to counter an active assailant. This is a great curriculum to compliment your current active-shooter program.
CRASE is a part of the Advance Law Enforcement Rapid Response Training (ALERRT) program which operates under Texas State University in San Marcos, Texas. The program is funded and backed by the United States Department of Justice, Bureau of Justice Assistance. Federal funding allows the program to be provided to public and private sector organizations free of charge.
Since February of 2016, the Maryland State Police has delivered the CRASE program to over 10,000 citizens in person in both public and private sector organizations. The Civilian Response to Active Shooter Events (CRASE) course, designed and built on the Avoid, Deny, Defend (ADD) strategy developed by ALERRT in 2004, provides strategies, guidance and a proven plan for surviving an active shooter event. Topics include the history and prevalence of active shooter events, civilian response options, medical issues, and considerations for conducting drills. Participants in this four (4) hour Train-the-Trainer course will receive a manual and PowerPoint presentation suitable for use in their own presentations. They will then be certified to deliver the CRASE curriculum in their communities. Attendees DO NOT have to have a Train-the-Trainer Certification to teach this course as it is less than 4 hours as prescribed by MPTC.
Each course is open to 40 allied law enforcement officers. Due to the overwhelming demand for this program throughout region, new instructors are needed to serve our communities' requests.
