Training Testimonials
The training provided by IMS was outstanding!
I've personally attended the training with my
deputies and it is very demanding, yet very
rewarding. IMS staff are highly motivated
instructors who are very passionate about training
law enforcement personnel.

In
short, this school far exceeded my expectations. I have
yet to attend a more realistic and demanding course
since I entered law enforcement some 16 years ago. The
training was applicable, timely, tactically sound, and
realistic. It was an “eye opening” experience that
motivated me to share your philosophy with my SWAT team
and my department.
If
it were left up to me, every patrol officer in the Sate
of Florida would be required to take this class as a
primary requirement either in the police academy or
during in-service training. I whole-heartedly recommend
this class to any law enforcement agency in the country.
This training will save lives one day. You were sincere
and knowledgeable in your delivery of the class. The
training was worth every penny!
Please feel free to use me as a reference and to use
this correspondence as you see fit.

Our team has trained with IMS, and they really help
re-frame your
mindset as far as dealing with a terrorist/active
shooter threat. They
put you through the wringer as well, a very physically
and mentally
demanding course. The Israeli approach is somewhat
different in terms of
weapons handling and shooting stances, but the concepts
and mindset that
they instill in their training I can without a doubt say
helped our team's,
and my own personal performance under duress.
They also took the time to personally contact me after a
shooting, which
impressed me a lot.
I would also say that they are a great host, and took
several of us out to
a fine dinner during the NTOA Conference in L.A. When
they say
"brotherhood," they means it.

Just Finished "Brotherhood of Warriors" and I would certainly have to
agree with what everyone has said about the book, and
Highly recommend
it to anyone out there...definitely worth your while.
And I would also recommend taking any of Cohen's
training if you have
the opportunity, and feel free to contact him about it
and he'll send
you a DVD. He is very down to earth and knows his
"Stuff".

I wish to formally thank IMS for agreeing to be a
consultant to the Governor’s Office of Emergency
Services and their training branch located at the
California Specialized Training Institute.
Your experience and expertise in
these matters is well documented. You will be a real
asset as we move forward in the development of this
important and necessary course. Once again I thank you

I highly recommend
this training to those personnel, whether civilian law
enforcement or military special operations, who are
actively engaged in the Global War on Terror and have a
strong desire to learn. Perspective (s) gained will
expand the participant’s horizons and add appreciably
to their overall understanding of modern
counter-terrorism. SWAT and military special
operations personnel of various experience and skill
levels who take this course will gain a fresh
perspective on how high-risk Counter-Terrorism and
Hostage Rescue missions are executed, “Israeli
style.”

I highly recommend IMS
to any agency which seeks to bring their tactical team
to a new level. If your SWAT Team adopts only 25% of the
material taught by IMS it will make your team 100%
better.

" Let me
first say the training was EXCELLENT.
You and your assistant were very professional
instructors who were able to teach the tactics necessary
to “take back” a nuclear facility in a terrorist
type incident.

"As
an operators who have been there, their level of expertise
is unmatched and evident throughout their instruction. IMS
not only presented his material in detail, but always
led all forms of training which brought out exactly how
EXPERIENCED they are in counter-terror tactical operations."

Instructors are
straight forward no nonsense taskmasters who
brought
us an expertise that could only be learned by those who have been there.
We have had training from others in this area but
it did not compare to the training we received this
time.
