FRI INSTRUCTOR CERTIFICATION
Our mission is to get this life-saving FORCE READINESS training to as many law enforcement, military and security professionals as possible. Many times, the most efficient way to do that is with Instructor Certification training. We believe that no one can teach your agency better than you. With the successful completion of each FORCE READINESS Instructor Certification Course, the participant is certified to teach the learned curriculum to their respective agency.
Our Instructor Certification programs spend a substantial amount of time teaching participants how to safely, efficiently and effectively transfer the learned knowledge in the course. The course curriculum is comprised of detailed physical training with numerous repetitions, warm-ups, drills, lectures, opportunities for attendees to teach, ask questions, plan, and build mock lesson plans. Our goal is to provide training that will allow participants to deliver a well-integrated defensive tactics program to their agencies and departments.

LAW ENFORCEMENT TRAINING
The G-FORCE TACTICAL WORLDWIDE™ FORCE READINESS DIVISION has taken important steps to refine G-FORCE SURVIVAL TACTICS™ for the needs of American law enforcement. Keenly aware of use-of-force and liability issues facing law enforcement, the FORCE READINESS program is constantly updated in consultation with use-of-force experts (including district attorneys, police liability defense lawyers, police administrators, and defensive tactics instructors) to provide real-world effectiveness and defensible applications of reasonable force.
Our approach is simple: "stop the problem and take safe control as quickly as possible." Officer safety is paramount— before, during and after a confrontation. We deal with cooperative, resistive, assaultive/high risk, and life-threatening situations. Safety in training is our top priority during all aspects of the course. Teaching participants how to safely train in the system and to safely teach their students how to train is a key component of the program.
