About the Event:

THE CENTER FOR DOMESTIC PREPAREDNESS AND

THE RESILIENCY TRAINING AND INNOVATION CENTER AT THE BLUE LAKE RANCHERIA

Field Force Operations (FFO) is a three-day course providing state and local law enforcement personnel the

knowledge and skills necessary to prepare for and successfully mitigate threat incidents involving civil disorder.

FFO combines classroom instruction with practical exercises that afford responders the opportunity to practice

concepts and tactics in a controlled environment. Actvities included in this course are mass arrest procedures,

team tactics, demonstrator tactics, crowd dynamics and mob behavior, use of riot control agents and less lethal

munitions, and the employment of personal protective equipment (PPE).

Below are some, but not all, of the critical skill sets learned during this training program:

• Understand how the First, Fourth, Eight and Fourteenth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution relate to civil action disorder.

• Express the considerations and processes for conducting

mass arrests during civil action/disorder.

• Act as a member of an arrest team and remove an arrestee using both two- and four-officer carry techniques.

• Serve as a member of a mobile field force (MFF) team while conducting dismounted crowd control operations with and without personal protective equipment (PPE).
