National Law Enforcement Training Center
The Lanham Act, 15 U.S.C. §§ 1051 et seq., was enacted by Congress in 1946. The Act provides for a national system of trademark registration and protects the owner of a federally registered mark against the use of similar marks if such use is likely to result in consumer confusion, or if the dilution of a famous mark is likely to occur. LVNR® is federally recognized and any use by agencies, media or other sources without authorization is a violation of the Lanham Act and other US trade agreements.

3-Year Instructor Membership
What's different about NLETC's Instructor Courses?
​
One major difference is all Instructor's Courses come with a three-year all inclusive access to any course materials and videos of the techniques you learn during your instructor training. Typical course materials will have presentations such as PowerPoint, Manuals, and Videos of Techniques. As materials change, you still get access to these materials. NLETC acknowledges that courses contain a lot of material and can be overwhelming particularly if enrolled in a 5-6 day instructors course. To ensure quality control, instructors must have access to materials and it is our commitment to constantly update and provide online access for all members. There are no additional fees for this service. At any time during your three-year certification you are able to access all available course materials.
MASTER GROUND DEFENSE INSTRUCTOR PROGRAM
October 30 to November 3
This 5 day program is designed to give a Defensive Tactics Instructor realistic and easy to teach techniques that allow Officers to survive and overcome ground based attacks. This program offers techniques to defeat common standing attacks against an Officer. It uses principles of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to teach the Instructor safe and effective tools to survive a ground encounter. Designed to allow Officers of all sizes to learn tactically sound leverage based techniques that result in Officers gaining control of the suspect with a much lower degree of injury.

​
Our newest Defensive Tactics Instructor Program was developed in 2021 and is a brand new approach to Defensive Tactics. It incorporates modern and realistic techniques based on a wide range of martial arts disciplines including Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. These techniques are delivered in a scientifically based teaching methodology that enhances learning and retention. We are in a new era, where now Officers are not just concerned with taking control of a suspect, but also defending themselves against assault. These issues are addressed in this program. The program is comprised of 3 days of essential techniques.

Defensive Tactics Instructor in the following areas:
Joint Locks, Common attacks against Officers including strikes and standing grappling, Body Lock and Joint Lock Takedowns, Transitions to Handcuffing, and compliant and non compliant Handcuffing Techniques.
