T3 takes an evidence-based, interactive, hands-on approach to learning and feedback that systematically develops officers’
ability to integrate tact, tactics, and trust. Like any kind of human performance, police-community interactions must be learned and deliberately practiced in a realistic context. Passive, lecture-based training is demonstrably ineffective at actually changing officers’ performance. To put this another way, memorizing facts in a classroom setting doesn’t translate into successful decisions on the street. Even officers who are poor performers can recite in a classroom setting what they are supposed to do: they just don’t do it in critical situations. For these reasons, we make our classes as interactive as
possible, even though a large number of officers may be attending.
