Because most cops are blind, their investigative, driving, survival, and decision-making skills are all compromised. 

Officers may miss evidence at crime scenes, even though it may be in plain sight.  They have traffic accidents, often hitting objects and other vehicles they didn't see.

Police Officers are assaulted by assailants, never noticing obvious visual cues or weapons before the attack.  They are involved in controversial uses of force based on observations made under mental conditions, which will further impair their ability to see.  Unfortunately, most cops don't realize they are afflicted and won't do anything to correct their condition. 

Most administrators, investigators, and trainers also don't understand how this can impact personnel.  The condition, known as Perceptual Blindness, has been studied extensively in scientific circles for decades and is only now finding practical applications in fields like police work. 

Understanding this is extremely important for a profession in which observation skill plays such a critical role.

Our Tactical Vision course has the following learning objectives: Make officers aware of the scope of the problem of Perceptual Blindness and how it affects their performance and safety.

• Teach officers the mechanics of vision. Introduce officers to the various components of Perceptual Blindness.
• Teach officers the limitations of their vision and give them the training tools to overcome the problem.
• Teach officers how to integrate their new visual skills into daily activities like investigations, handling service calls, and driving. 

Tactical Vision - this Version is an 8-hour class showing police officers how to become 'trained observers. 

• The various elements of Perceptual Blindness affect police officers in every aspect of their daily duties, regardless of their assignment. 
• The visual evidence shown in this class is compelling and frightening.  Words can't do justice to the scope of the problem. 

This powerful presentation literally must be seen to be believed.
