The Brand
Tactics get you to the point where marksmanship matters. The Kinetic Concepts logo represents spatial awareness. Spatial awareness is a cognitive skill that tells us our position relative to objects and people around us. It helps us interact with our surroundings and navigate different spaces. It also involves the ability to visualize objects in our mind from different perspectives. How we move, make decisions and apply tactics in our environment is the majority of what cops do. Winning or losing will likely come down to where you're standing and why you are there. If you don't get there at all nothing else matters.
Mission
Current police tactical training is inadequate, and it does not afford officers the opportunity to build tactical skills. Most training that does exist outside the department is catered to those in "advanced" tactical positions.
Brad does do not believe that only specialized units should have access to higher levels of tactical training. Rarely do specialized units arrive first to the most critical incidents.
Brad has created courses and curriculums which give officers the information they need to discover their process for arriving at the point where marksmanship matters. It is your responsibility to increase your chances of survival and limit the level of destruction.
Our unique and detailed tactical training is the most relevant training for police officers. Our training is built from past and present law enforcement critical incidents and specifically focuses the situations officers will likely find themselves involved in.
Brad understands that officers often do not continue training concepts after leaving tactical training courses. In order to mitigate this issue Brad has focused on providing a pathway for officers to continue training themselves on the street once they have the information from the courses.
