ASP Baton and Handcuff Certification is the most dynamic impact weapon and restraint training available. ASP training incorporates easily remembered and devastatingly effective techniques that can be used by all personnel under actual field conditions, coupled with court defensible procedures that have reduced liability whilst improving safety. The ASP Tactical Baton and Handcuff training program is universal across all levels of Law Enforcement, Military, and Security. Thousands of operational personnel have learned first hand that ASP techniques work under the stress of actual street confrontations.

The program has revolutionized baton and handcuff training, and has been implemented by agencies throughout the world, with training being conducted in 77 countries. The competency-based training program is based upon a conceptual model for the use of force and teaches the ASP principles of control using the ASP Tactical Baton & ASP Tactical Handcuffs. It focuses on mechanical functions and maintenance procedures for ASP Tactical Baton & Handcuffs and skill with expandable impact weapons and the full range of ASP handcuffs.

The programs are easy to understand and provide efficient defensive tactics for all personnel without long hours of training. The tactics are quickly learned, easily practiced and readily maintained long after the program is completed and training incorporates drills which simulate the stress of street encounters. As a realistic training program ASP instruction recognizes that nothing works 100% of the time, so all ASP training retains the officers ability to disengage or escalate, and since there are no complicated moves the ASP Tactical Baton and Handcuff Certification program avoids the training complexities which often plague other programs.

Once certified, participants are prepared in operational use of ASP Tactical Baton & Handcuffs, for ASP Basic Certification (ABC). Certification comes direct from Armament Systems and Procedures head office (not a third party program) and includes a wallet identification card, professional ASP Certificate, and lapel pins to signify that you have completed the "Gold Standard" in Law Enforcement training.

This is a competency-based training program, mere participation does not guarantee certification. "ASP Certification is Earned NOT Given".
