SAFETAC has some of the most knowledgeable and dynamic presenters in the industry today. Tony Scotti describes it has “state of the art education” and we believe that you will agree. Our training has a specific focus on the three largest threats to law enforcement today (Driving, Violent Encounters & Wellness) and we have full time law enforcement professionals delivering the most up to date courses on these topics in one day seminars. Our trainers are authors of books, write monthly for various law enforcement publications and are literally the foremost experts in their field.
Finally, we want our seminars to be affordable and when compared to others, you will see that the main goal of SAFETAC is to bring the information to those that need it the most in the most economical fashion available. We will work with you and do whatever it takes to bring SAFETAC to you.
