STUDY ON THE SELECTION OF TECHNICAL PROCEDURES FOR SPECIAL-STATUS PERSONNEL ATTENDING THE CAREER INITIATION COURSE

On the occasion of the Career Initiation Course in the academic year 2023-2024, which was attended by 202 special-status officials working in the field of Public Order and Security, an analysis was made about the response to a series of attacks consisting of holds and strikes, but also defensive actions against weapons by applying specific Ju-Jitsu technical procedures based on throwing and joint techniques to gain forced control as a way of responding to operational situations. The study is intended for operational personnel who must be trained with the most effective intervention techniques in order to improve future operational activity, but mostly for specialists in the field in order to help them adapt to the learners’ particular features. Analysing the perception of basic self-defence elements from a beginner’s point of view gives information that can be used to guide future teaching approaches. The possibility of being equipped with a complex set of technical skills consisting of body-striking, joint-locking, throwing, forced transport and immobilisation techniques provides personnel at the beginning of their careers with psychological and technical-tactical safety. At the same time, in terms of teaching activity, we aim to constantly select and adapt our study programmes to the evolution of crime rates in our society.
