Illinois Certifies WRAP's Operational De-escalation Curriculum, Recognizing 5.5 Hours of State-Mandated Officer Training

WRAP
  • Illinois Law Enforcement Training and Standards Board (ILETSB) certified WRAP's ten-hour BolaWrap® 150 CIT Rescue Tool Level 1 course for in-service training.
  • The certification awards 5.5 hours of credit across five mandated law enforcement training categories.
  • Illinois is the first state to recognize a curriculum developed under WRAP's Non-Lethal System Doctrine.
  • The recognized training credits cover 2.5 hours of de-escalation techniques, 1.5 hours of officer safety, 0.5 hours of general de-escalation, 0.5 hours of de-escalation techniques, and 0.5 hours of laws concerning stops, searches, & use of force.
  • The curriculum integrates the WrapTactics™ Learning Management System (LMS) to allow two hours of foundational instruction to be completed digitally before in-person training.
  • The remaining eight hours of the course are delivered in-person to cover equipment handling, decision-making, practical techniques, & certification testing.
  • WRAP is transitioning from selling individual devices to delivering operationalized de-escalation as an integrated program supported by doctrine, standardized curriculum, & credentialing.
  • This hybrid training model aims to support scalable adoption, expand recurring training opportunities, & strengthen long-term relationships with law enforcement agencies.
  • The certified course is the first of four WRAP credential levels designed to evaluate officer proficiency through written exams, practical skills assessments, & scenario-based evaluations.
  • WRAP plans to submit its doctrine-based curriculum for consideration in additional states to align with their specific training requirements.
  • The strategy focuses on establishing recurring revenue streams through ongoing training, digital learning, & professional readiness rather than one-time equipment purchases.
