    Course Objective

    We begin each session by honoring the sacrifices of our fallen, celebrating the law enforcement profession and asking each attendee to inwardly assess their own career. We define true “Warrior Ethos” as well as the “Guardian Mindset” as we talk about the history of women in policing and celebrate our winners and role models.  We then introduce gender-specific science and leadership principles that anyone can use to enhance their career and improve their life on and off the job. The multi-media format keeps students engaged and entertained while we provide officers, agents, dispatchers, trainers, supervisors, managers and all other personnel with a realistic view of gender differences and how these can be harnessed in both men and women to improve performance, morale, communication, relationships, and especially officer safety.

    Course Content

    • The Not Today mindset, on every call, on every shift
    • Why “survival” is minimalistic and we must train to WIN!
    • Embracing your responsibility for your own tactics, training, safety and career
    • What “Guardianship” really means to you, your career and your community
    • Why and how to embrace Warrior Ethos regardless of your career path
    • Preventing and preparing for officer ambush
    • How to leave behind the “victim-based” mentality and take control of your own future
    • Recognizing and taking advantage of the differences between men and women
    • Learning to communicate effectively with everyone in your agency and beyond
    • How to bring your family into your world to enhance off duty safety and your relationships
    • Finding and using the best female-specific equipment available
    • Learning to “lead, mentor, and inspire” others regardless of your assignment or tenure
    • How to increase your awareness and overcome the effects of “routine”
    • Dealing with pregnancy in a high risk profession
    • Assessing your own career and coming up with a plan for real success
    • How “Post Traumatic Growth” can improve your career and your life
    • How to truly embrace “the family” of law enforcement and stand together

     

    This training is like no other in that it encourages women, and those who train and supervise them, to look beyond the anecdotal, “that’s-the-way-we’ve-always-done-it” world of learning and utilize science, physiology and proven methods and information that will help anyone in law enforcement improve their career and their survival.   Sgt. Smith’s philosophy of “teaching by storytelling” cites real-world, inspirational examples of courageous men and women whose stories stay with the attendees long after the class has concluded. The atmosphere created in the classroom encourages students to network and gain strength and information from each other, making this session a powerful day for all involved.  This course will inspire, motivate, and encourage women to excel and to win, regardless of assignment!

    About the Instructor

    Lou Tessmann, CFI retired from the Waukegan (Illinois) Police Department after 23 years of service in a wide variety of assignments, including patrol, investigations, training, and ultimately Deputy Chief of Police.

    Lou is a 26-year veteran of the United States Marine Corps, retiring as a CWO-4. In addition to his service in Vietnam he was activated for Desert Storm and Desert Shield and has received numerous military awards including the Naval Commendation Medal. Lou began his career as a police officer with the City of Waukegan assigned to the patrol division. He was later assigned to the detective bureau for nine years and as a juvenile officer for one year. Lou also served as the Commander of the elite Lake County Major Crime Task Force. The task force works on major criminal investigations relating to homicides, kidnappings, and police-involved shootings. During his career, he has conducted thousands of interviews and interrogations. Most noteworthy, Lou has obtained over 80 homicide confessions during his career with only three instances where he was unable to obtain a confession from the homicide suspect.

    Lou has delivered seminars to police and private security organizations throughout the country, as well as internationally in locations such as Tokyo, Japan. He has been a guest speaker on programs such as the Discovery Channel, Real Detective and America’s Most Wanted. Lou’s work was featured in a Dateline NBC story about convicted child molester Arthur Ream and the unsolved 22-year old murder case of a 13-year old girl in Eastpointe, Michigan. Lou assisted local law enforcement with an interrogation of this suspect. His efforts resulted in a first-degree murder conviction, a mandatory life sentence without the possibility of parole, and the subsequent recovery of the victim’s body. To-date, Lou continues to assist agencies throughout the country with homicides investigations.

    Lou graduated from Northeastern Illinois University with a B.A. degree in English and Physical Education and is a member of numerous professional and training organizations, including the International Homicide Investigators Association.

He currently holds undergraduate and graduate faculty positions and has received accolades as a nationally renowned lecturer training thousands of police, lawyers, prosecutors, and judges.

    Course Objectives

    This course of instruction is designed to acquaint participants with the potential physical, mental, legal, and ethical hazards associated with the use/misuse of firearms, to introduce the overall firearms training requirements of the basic course, and to develop thorough basic instruction and supervised practical range exercises that test the individual’s ability to use firearms effectively.

    Instruction will emphasize safe practice and caring for and using firearms on and off duty. These instructions should be clearly illustrated. Instruction will also include proper techniques for handling, loading, and unloading firearms, emphasizing that safety comes through learning and practice. Discussion will include appropriate equipment to be utilized which will better assure safety, such as proper holsters, the built-in safety of various types of firearms, and safety securing devices which can be used to assure firearm safety while it is being carried, when it is being handled, or when it is being stored.

    The Safe-T Act made, among other changes, modifications to the Criminal Code of 2012. The new enactments which began becoming effective July 1, 2021, include new criminal statutes directed at law enforcement behavior and changes to the peace officer use of force statutes.

    Five hours of classroom time will be devoted to the legal responsibility of the use of weapons, particularly the peace officer’s use of force in making an arrest.

    Law-enforcement agencies and student officers must be made aware of the fact that this is a minimum standard basic firearms course only and should not be considered all the firearms training necessary for the officer to become and remain competent in firearms. It is required that all officers re-qualify once a year.

    All officers must successfully complete the 40-Hour Mandatory Firearms Training Course required by Public Act 84-487 prior to carrying a firearm in the performance of their official duties.

    The firearms training requirement is incorporated as an integral part of the basic law enforcement and basic correctional officer courses.

    Officers will be given one opportunity to pass the MFT written exam and three chances to qualify with their service weapon, if they fail to pass the written exam and/or the qualification, they may have to complete the entire 40-Hour MFT course. Full & Part Time Police Officers successfully completing this course will have complied with Public Acts 70-652 and 84-487

    Also, trainees should bring their duty weapon, shotgun, and leather gear to class.  The duty weapon and shotgun should be a good quality weapon in good condition.  Each trainee must provide the following ammunition:

     Shotgun Ammunition:      

    650 rounds of pistol ammunition

    5 rounds of either #4 buck or .00 buck

    5 rounds of rifled slug

    5 rounds of field load

    Slide Switch Flashlight (no twist switch)
