★★★★★
Yes I was sceptical for being to old to do the training with all young talent that was around me. Mr butt encouraged me right from the get go and was always there for the extra help even when it wasn’t withing the hours of the class! It could have been a call or a text or simply showing me a different perspective on a move that made it stick in my mind! I wouldn’t be were I am today! And he did get some fun out of it when he got to spray me! And il always be sad I can’t return the favour but it made me a stronger Officer when he did it! Thank you!

Mr. Butt's patience and dedication as a training instructor left a lasting impact on me. He consistently went above and beyond his duties, taking the time to work with me one-on-one when I struggled, even though he wasn't obligated to. His calm guidance and willingness to explain concepts until I fully understood them made a huge difference in my progress. On the days when I wasn't at my best physically or mentally he never gave up on me. Instead, he motivated me, cheered me on, and reminded me of my potential, pushing me to keep going when I felt like giving up. His support made all the difference in my training journey and I am truly grateful to have had such an amazing instructor to look up to.

Tariq was a wonderful instructor I felt that he never rushed you and made sure you understood the concepts before moving on! I had some areas where I struggled and Tariq was the instructor who went out of his way to help me! Combined with his experiences and variety of jobs he has worked, he knows how to associate training to real life examples which makes a significant difference. \n\nBeing a female in law enforcement can be overwhelming but when you have an instructor like Tariq you learn many techniques to keep yourself safe and he helps you build your confidence! I met Tariq a few years ago and I am now a police officer who still remembers the coaching he gave me and use them in my line of work! I really recommend taking a training course with Tariq if you want to be successful in any given law enforcement field!

I reached out to Strike Training Systems for an online interview prep session, and it was a great experience. Tariq walked me through a full mock interview for a security role, providing detailed notes and really helpful feedback on how to use the STAR method effectively.<br><br>\nWhat stood out most was how personable Tariq was. He’s clearly very knowledgeable in the law enforcement field and gave me some solid career advice that I hadn't considered. He was open to all my questions and even offered his continued support if I needed anything down the road. I felt much more confident going into my interview and prepared to handle any question they threw at me. It was definitely a worthwhile investment, and I’d absolutely book with him again.

Strike delivers evidence-based theory and skills through responsible practice. It is clear to me that the instructors have combined their wealth of knowledge/lived experience with a passion for meeting students where they're at, delivering an education that grows confidence and competency in each learner. Strike treats students with dignity and understanding, while also grounding them in reality. The course I attended felt like a fun and supportive place to explore and learn, and I walked away feeling successful. Tariq and his team should feel fulfilled knowing they have designed and delivered such a quality experience.

★★★★★
Tariq has put together, not just a phenomenal security/officer training course, but an experience as well. He has pulled from his own wealth of experience and knowledge while also drawing on active members of law enforcement from various agencies. This results in incredible insights, real world scenarios and situations, as well as their respective responses and tactics. The ratio of instructors to recruits is incredible, as it means all recruits receive 1 on 1 attention and focus throughout their time with STRIKE. For any security guards, officers, or security/officer hopefuls, this course is a must.
— G.B.
★★★★★
The biggest difference with STRIKE is being able to learn from actual law enforcement officers, more clarification and knowledge on laws and why do we apply them. This is critical and I feel like if I get subpoenaed right now I will be able to answer all the questions to a defence attorney. Something that I wasn’t expecting and that was outstanding is the scenarios where you’re exhausted and out of breath and how to respond to that. The recruit shirts were outstanding and professional
