5-Day ”Women’s Undercover Techniques and Survival”

Attendees: This course is designed for “FEMALE” Undercover and Plainclothes Officers/Detectives/Agents/Supervisors assigned to Narcotics, Gangs, Intelligence, Internal Affairs, Vice, Human Trafficking, or Specialized Units.

Course Description: This 5-day (36 hour) training was designed to complement the experienced FEMALE undercover officer as well as bring the newly assigned FEMALE undercover officer to the level of awareness and safety coupled with the knowledge that is required of seasoned undercovers. This "pay it forward" type of training has come from Dave’s 25 years of instruction and 30 years of personal experience. Having trained over 18,000 male and female undercover personnel, both internationally and nationally, Instructor Dave Redemann learned early in his teaching career that even though he was blessed to have a wide array of undercover experience and knowledge, he has not walked in the shoes of a female undercover. With this concept in mind, Dave augments his teaching with additional experienced female undercover instructors. Through years of dedication and hard work, Dave earned the respect and trust of female undercover officers and agents who have bestowed, ‘paid forward’, their experiences, both and good and bad, and shared the pitfalls of being female in an undercover assignment. A large number of those experiences and events are captured and recorded in interviews that Dave uses as examples during the course. In addition,Dave couples these recordings with his own personal experiences in an effort to assist those assigned to undercover work. Dave’s objective is to make the dangerous job of undercover work safer and bring a new level of professionalism to the assignment. Dave strives to impart this knowledge and information to others in an effort to make certain every female undercover officer gets home to their loved ones each and every night. Dave updates his training with the most current and relevant information prior to each course of instruction. 

The training covers: The training covers: weapon placement and options, effective recruitment and utilization of informants, identifying safety considerations and unique problems associated with undercover work, addressing the psychological challenges of undercover work, identifying difficult undercover situations and demonstrating methods to resolve them, understanding prosecutorial guidelines,regulations and entrapment issues, discussing risk management of undercover operations, examining key issues in the supervision of undercover units and personnel, demonstrating techniques for infiltration of certain criminal organizations, identifying and demonstrating briefing and debriefing technique and addressing theunique issues associated with women working in undercover assignments.

Dave was tasked with infiltrating an Outlaw Motorcycle Gang. This assignment lasted for almost 4 years. Dave has spent roughly ten years of his undercover career living with the criminals he was investigating. While working undercover, Dave has purchased most levels of numerous types of narcotics, stolen vehicles, stolen property, guns, fully automatic guns, explosives, and hand grenades.
