I have taken many defensive tactics and law enforcement courses in the past and all of them deal with attacks on the low end of the force spectrum. The combat intelligence officer course is the first course I have taken that deals with realistic violent attacks on officers.

The CIO consists of 4 leves of courses. Each building progressively off the last. You also have to opportunity to become a CIO Trainer in each level of course, which ultimately leads to CIO Master Trainer. Watch our promo and find out more about the CIO program as well as watching REAL officers training in the program as well.
Almost all empty hand defensive tactics training for officers involve a one-step, pre-determined attack and defend structure. This training method is ineffective in preparing officers for the actual chaos of a violent encounter.
CIO is not yet another ‘Arrest & Control Program’, it is the fist and ONLY program designed to teach Law Enforcement Officers how to survive an all out physical assault and win!
