​As one satisfied law enforcement officer remarked; "DICTATE is simple to learn, easy to remember, and is devastatingly effective in its application."
It is time for law enforcement agencies, military units, and self-defense practitioners to stop learning to react and start learning to DICTATE!

The old training methods of block, pary, counter, he does "A" so I do "B," needed to be revised.  What if you had to only remember 2 to 3 answers for any "what if" question you could run into?  Thousands of situations handled by a few concise concepts.  Now you can have all of that and more.

DICTATE's concept based training method offers:
  • All Courses/Seminars are based on same 10 Operational Concepts
  • Less information to recall in a time of stress
  • Minimum training with maximum retention
  • Easily compatible with an existing self-defense/defensive tactics/combatives training program you already use

Seminars and Certification Courses for both End Users and Instructors are available.  Whether your reason for becoming certified in this program is to enhance your own skill level, give your students the upper hand in a real street situation, or open a new revenue stream in your school focused on adult self-defense training, DICTATE will exceed your needs.
You can join the over 100 Military Units and Law Enforcement Agencies who have received this training.  These include US Special Forces Operational Detachments, US Special Operations Units, Palm Beach Co. Sheriff's Office, FL, El Paso Co. Sheriff's Office, CO, Ft. Carson Special Reaction Team, CO, 302nd Air Force Security Forces, 50th Security Forces, CO, Colorado Department of Corrections Academy Instructors and Special Operations Team, Georgia Department of Corrections, West Virginia Department of Corrections, and numerous others.

Training can be conducted at our training facility or yours.  

Pricing depends on location, travel arrangements, number of participants, and whether or not your agency is willing to be a host for a Certification Course or Seminar.

DICTATE offers a money back guarentee on all of its training.
