Blue to Gold Search and Seizure training BOTH DAYS
Advanced Search & Seizure
Knowing when and how to conduct a search or seizure is a critical part of good police work. This course breaks
down the Fourth Amendment and how it applies on the street, giving officers the tools they need to make solid,
defensible decisions in the field. You’ll get hands-on with the legal foundations behind search and seizure—when
you can act, when you need consent or a warrant, and what happens when you cross the line. We’ll cover both
federal and state cases to make sure you’re ready no matter where you work. Through case studies and real-world
scenarios, you’ll build the confidence to handle these situations the right way.

Advanced Traffic Stops
Making a traffic stop is one of the most common—and sometimes most legally tricky—things cops do. This course
helps officers sharpen their skills in making stops that are both effective and legally solid. You’ll get a handle on the
real-world application of constitutional principles so your stops hold up in court and build trust with the community.
You’ll learn the nuts and bolts of key traffic stop topics—like the motor vehicle exception, pretext stops, vehicle
searches, and passenger questioning. We’ll also cover the big court decisions that shape how you do your job, and
dig into things like K9 sniffs, inventories, and probable cause searches.
