Certification

CDT offers multiple levels of courses from application to instructor.
CDT courses are offered in a variety of levels.  Each course is updated yearly in accordance with the use of force guidelines as they pertain to the status of each trainee.  Upon completion of a designated CDT Course, the trainee is certified and assigned his own registered certification number, certificate, and CDT license identification card.  To maintain certification status students and instructors must re-certify annually.
