Subject: Enrolment Kit for the Defensive Tactics Baton and Handcuffs

Dear Instructor Candidate,

Thank you for choosing Safecity as your Course Provider. I have detailed below the course information you require. Costs of all the courses are on page two of the application form.

 

The next NSW Defensive Tactics Baton and Handcuffs will be held in Sydney and will be conducted over 9 weekends.

When we receive your application and fee, we will send you the Instructor Course Manual.

Cost includes: Course manual, Software, Tuition, Certificate IV in Assessment and Workplace Training, The Defensive Tactics Baton and Handcuffs Instructor modules, and the Course in Employ Baton and Handcuffs Manuals.

Course requirements:

You should be proficient with the use of weaponless techniques, batons and handcuffs. (A background in self-defence or martial arts which deal with holds and grips is not necessary but is recommended.)

Please bring the following equipment to the course:

All the above items are available from Safecity at nominal prices for candidate instructors. Safecity Instructors use the Safecity Expandable Baton a quality three piece 21" expandable baton.

I look forward working with you in this exciting project.

Regards,

Alexander Wilon JP
Managing Director


Training Aids and First Aid Certification

Course participants use a fully illustrated manual with step-by-step photographs and diagrams.  The student manual mirrors the instructor manual.

The course also makes use of Safecity's Quiz Wizard software which I designed to help trainees with their studies.

This is the only Australian Defensive Tactics Baton and Handcuffs course to offer Senior First Aid certification. In the event of an injury, the Instructor is able to offer immediate care which may save lives.

You will learn and practise teaching skills specifically designed for defensive tactics instructors. You will plan, rehearse and practise the full program that you will be teaching your future students. If you apply yourself and cooperate with your course providers, I guarantee you will be ready to teach a high quality defensive tactics baton and handcuffs accreditation course.

If, through no fault of your own, you are unable to successfully complete the practical component of the course, I will enrol you in the subsequent course free of charge. This offer obviously does not apply if you do not cooperate, choose not to study the course material.

Most importantly, I promise that you will be learning in a dignified and supportive environment. Your course providers are not only the best qualified instructors for this project--they are also helpful and friendly people, genuinely interested in your success. You will soon discover that there is no room in our classes for outbursts of egos or for negative and disparaging remarks.

As a Safecity Graduate Instructor you will become part of our team. We will support you with marketing ideas and other surprises we do not wish to announce just yet.
