Mission Statement: World Class Accredited K9 Training Institution & K9 Solutions Provider
Menu
American K-9 Interdiction, LLC. ™ (AK9I™) is proud to announce
that they have partnered up with Meritize, a comprehensive lending company
focused on solutions for student loans. Meritize will be able to provide up to
$17,500 in financing. The only prerequisites are that a minimum of 50% of the
total tuition amount is due prior to the beginning of class, and that the
remaining balance due to AK9I™ must be paid in full within six months of
graduation. It can be a combination of funding from Meritize and private funds.
Provided that students pay off the balance within six months of graduation,
they can set up an interest free payment plan with AK9I for the remainder.
Example 1: Student A opts to attend the 13-week course which
costs a total of $25,900. 50% of that amount would be $12,950. They get
approved for the max amount of $17,500 from Meritize at a repayment term of 120
months, so that satisfies the dollar amount needed to begin classes. The
student then sets up a payment plan with AK9I™ for the remaining balance of
$8,400 which can be paid over the following 6 months from the date of
graduation at 0% interest.
Example 2: Student B opts to attend the 13-week course, which
costs a total of $25,900, with $12,950 needed up front. The student gets
approved for $10,000 in funding from Meritize, payable over 120 months. The
student would need an additional $2,950 to provide to AK9I prior to the
beginning of class. The remaining balance of $12,950 can then be set up on an
interest free payment plan stretched out up to 6 months from graduation.
The Meritize platform will offer educational financing to
qualified students enrolled in the approved programs and have the flexibility
of choosing from multiple repayment options that each have a post course
completion grace period. Meritize brings more than traditional lending services
to the student as they offer a substantial amount of support for
post-employment such as resume writing, interview preparation, networking
assistance, and other career services.
The hope is that this new partnership will allow for those that
may not have the resources to cover the cost of tuition to still accomplish
their goal to attend one of our courses! For more information visit https://www.meritize.com/.

Bite work, grip development, decoy mechanics and development, single and multi-person pursuit and apprehension, apprehension from a vehicle, apprehension with gunfire, vehicle extractions, handler protection, prisoner escorts, recalls and outs, tracking and trailing. Utilizing Operant Conditioning methods, students will condition their dogs to pursue, bite, hold and guard a decoy with and without gunfire under a multitude of conditions, locations and stimuli.
Application of Principles of Conditioning (reward schedules, fixed and variable ratios and intervals) for the commands of “sit, stay, down, heel and come” walking in heel position and obstacle agility course. Utilizing Operant Conditioning methods, students are taught to condition the dogs to respond to basic verbal and hand commands and navigate the obstacle course using positive reinforcement methods.
Canine odor recognition protocol (4-hole variable, odor wall), practical application of detector dog handling search pattern and search procedures in buildings, vehicles, warehouses, stadiums offices, open areas parcels, luggage and bomb threat response protocols. Using operant conditioning methods, students are taught to condition a “green” dog to detect and passively respond to target odors in different environments.
Final certification of detector dog team in real world environments using North American Police Working Dog Association (NAPWDA) certification standards. Students will certify with their dog by demonstrating their dog’s ability to detect and respond with a passive response to the target odors. Students will also be able to identify their dog’s behavioral change when the dog is in the scent cone and working to source.
Orientation, canine safety, canine health care and grooming, canine kenneling and transportation, Principles of Conditioning, explosives and narcotics safety, storage and transportation. This segment of the course is designed to teach students safety practices in and around the kennels and safe handling and transportation of explosives and narcotics. Students are introduced to Operant Conditioning (reward schedules) and Classical conditioning (pairing of unconditioned and conditioned stimuli) escape training, the canine sensory spectrum and titration levels.
