The University Police at Albany will be hosting a Rape Aggression Defense (R.A.D.) Instructor Class on March 26-28 at the University at Albany. Times of the course will be 0800-1600 on March 26th, 0800-2200 on March 27th, and 0800-1800 on March 28th. The cost of the class is $400.00. Class will be held at the Empire Commons Apartments Community Building, which is located on the west side of the UAlbany Uptown Campus. All are welcome to attend. Applicants are not required to be law enforcement, however, will be subject to a background investigation.
All participants will be certified (upon successful completion) to teach the R.A.D. System of Basic Self Defense for Women. This intense 3 day, 30 hour instructor program is a cost effective way to obtain your own self defense instructor(s), and offer this structured, proactive self defense program to women in your community. This is the most comprehensive program of its kind, and now your agency can utilize its basic, tailored format as part of its overall crime prevention / community policing partnership package. Our instructor program is dynamic in every way and will challenge every participant. The course is taught in a relaxed environment that is conducive to learning tested instructional technique, proven tactics and unique insight about the problem of violence against women. Our program also includes physical defense workouts for technique development and an evening exercise that is designed to stimulate confrontational circumstances. From awareness and risk reduction to simulation training suits, this program covers it all! Registration includes all program materials, a 125+page instructor’s curriculum, certificate and one year of The Instructors Voice.
