COURSE
DESCRIPTION (2 days):
The OpTac International Death and
Officer-Involved Shootings Program will be held August 1-2,
2008, in Largo, Maryland.
This program is designed
to provide critical information for law enforcement and military
officers that have been or could be exposed to traumatic
incidents. Death as it relates to crisis situations, disasters,
violent acts, and terrorist incidents, along with the corresponding
emotional and social issues will provide officers, supervisors,
and peer support personnel with realistic expectations. An
emphasis is placed on coping with the aftermath of violent
acts that produce immediate or delayed stress. Issues associated
with murder, suicide, police-involved suicide, and other
events involving sudden death, loss, and injury are covered.
Death education, its meaning, and reactions are presented
to obtain a better understanding of this process and controversial
issue.
The cost to attend
the OpTac International Death and Officer-Involved Shootings
Program is $499 per person. There is limited space available,
therefore paid reservations will be accepted on a priority
basis.
