The purpose and scope of this training is to highlight the historical and contemporary artifacts of the crime and terror nexus and how Human Terrain Mapping and Behavior Pattern Recognition (HTMBPR) compliments efforts to thwart criminal and terrorist activities in the United States. HTMBPR is a science-based predictive analysis and proactive decision-making model. It is based upon lessons learned from the development of Human-Behavior Pattern Recognition and Analysis programs for the Department of Defense. HTMBPR focuses on developing advanced critical thinking, the decision-making algorithm, biases, and the six layers of human behavior. It provides a framework for Law Enforcement Officers to observe, articulate, document, and defend decisions they make while performing their duties by providing officers with the knowledge, skills, and abilities to:
  1. Observe a situation, orient themselves with it, and make sound practical decisions in accordance with law and agency policy and procedure, and
  2. Then take legal, moral, and ethically appropriate actions.
Contained within this training will be small group breakouts, written test, and video practical applications.

* This project is supported by Homeland Security funds, awarded by the Illinois Terrorism Task Force through the Illinois Law Enforcement Training and Standards Board.
