Training – Spring 2009
Spanish for Cops I

Allegheny
County, March 9-11, 2009

$75.00

This class is taught by Chief John Rife who has been involved with law enforcement since 1978. Chief Rife also writes curriculum for private schools throughout the country. The philosophy and concept of this course is quite simple, “Four or Less Words”. Attendees of this class will not be required to learn lengthy and complete sentences, but rather keywords to accomplish the command of any situation. Spanish for Cops I places emphasis on traffic stops and first encounters.

The class length is 2 and ˝ days, with the last day committed to performing mock traffic stops. This has proven to be the most effective way to test the skills and knowledge taught in the classroom. Moreover, the scenarios received high accolades from all police officers that previously attended this class.

Attendees will receive a book and an interactive DVD to assist in future remedial learning
