About the Instructor: Craig Meyer has been a certified Peace Officer since 2013. He began his career in Somerset County, New Jersey where he graduated the police academy and then worked for two different municipal police departments from 2013-2017. At the end of 2017, Meyer transferred to the State of Texas to work with a municipal police department. Since transferring to Texas, Meyer has promoted to the role of Sergeant. During his time in Texas, he has held the positions of Patrol Sergeant, Field Training Program Coordinator and SWAT Team Leader. Meyer stands behind his “lead from the front” mentality as a supervisor, prioritizes developing his people and believes in fulfilling his greater purpose of helping officers all over the country achieve success in employing proactive policing tactics. As an instructor, Meyer has been credited by thousands of police officers across North America and Canada for having created a lecture-based presentation that has successfully broken down and explained the human limbic system as it applies to behaviors commonly displayed by criminals, in a way that can be easily comprehended and then immediately applied at the street level by police officers for success. Meyer is still a proactive Sergeant and continues to employ the same tactics and training taught in class, in the field with his own team of officers.
