Curriculum Vitae – Michael K. Harrigan CURRICULUM VITAE – MICHAEL K. HARRIGAN SUMMARY Michael Harrigan’s law enforcement career spanned over 30 years, 22 with the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI), and included service with federal, local, and military agencies. As an FBI Special Agent, he specialized in criminal investigations while serving as a SWAT team member, firearm instructor, and tactical instructor. In the aftermath of the terrorist attacks on 9/11, he founded a Joint Terrorism Task Force, followed by two years assigned to the Attorney General’s Protection Detail (AGPD). He later applied his criminal investigative experience at the National Center for the Analysis of Violent Crime in the Violent Criminal Apprehension Program (ViCAP). In this position, Mr. Harrigan worked closely with the nation’s law enforcement agencies in providing analytical support in serial criminal investigations. After three years supervising a squad of agents investigating matters on the Indian reservations in New Mexico, he was promoted to Chief of the FBI National Academy. In this role, he led the operations of the country’s preeminent law enforcement leadership institution. He later focused his attention on providing internal leadership as the Chief of the Firearms Training Program. Recently, he has been invited to sit on the Society of Former Special Agents of the FBI’s Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act (LEOSA) Sub-Committee, which researches intent of the LEOSA law, advocates passage of LEOSA related laws, and provides congress with recommendation on policies/procedures. In addition to providing training and presentations to the FBI National Academy, ViCAP conferences, and various associations, Mr. Harrigan has written for Grapevine Publication and has been interviewed by the LA Times, ABC’s Nightline, and USA Today and currently serves as a law enforcement expert for Eagle.

CURRICULUM VITAE – MICHAEL K. HARRIGAN EXPERIENCE and ASSIGNMENTS – THE FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION 2016 - 2018 Chief, Firearms Training Program (FTU), FBI Academy, Quantico, VA Offered leadership to a cadre of full-time firearm instructors delivering basic firearms training curriculum to all New Agent Trainees (NAT) at the FBI Academy and guidance and program oversight to 1,500 firearms instructors located in FBI offices across the organization. Established a collaborative team-oriented approach to shift the training philosophy to more effectively address the reality of the mission, including partnerships with other units and field principle firearms instructors in assessing and implementing program changes resulting in the following innovations: • Developed a new agency standard Pistol Qualification Course based on a comprehensive analysis of agency use-of-force incidents. • Integrated weapon-mounted lights into training and issued to all NATs. • Redesigned Firearm Instructor School to update the curriculum and more effectively focus on the fundamental core instructional skills. • Redesigned the agency’s standard qualification target to increase its effectiveness as a training tool. • Established a formal Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act (LEOSA) process and guide for pending retirees, which aligned the agency’s procedures with the statutory requirements of the law. • Recruited and hired external firearm instructional personnel from other law enforcement agencies to bring diversity to the program’s philosophy. • Launched a program to issue pistol safes to all NATs to raise the level of firearms safety and security in agent residences. • Led the transition of the FBI from the .40 to the 9mm pistol platform. • Examined and included external “best practices” into the philosophy of the program. • Improved the medical readiness of all instructors by requiring CPR certification and the carriage of tourniquets during all training. • Implemented a range improvement initiative to remove decades of residual lead from the Quantico firearms ranges resulting in the mining and recycling of nearly 1,000,000 pounds of lead. The project also included the installation of granulated rubber bullet berms, which markedly reduced the potential environmental impact from the migration of lead residue into groundwater. • Conducted a comprehensive safety review of the Quantico firearms range infrastructure resulting in multiple projects to mitigate risks to both shooters and the instructional staff, to include reinforcement of existing ballistic walls and the replacement/refurbishment of multiple targetry systems. • Partnered with the FBI’s Organizational Safety program to develop the first clear guidelines to govern the delivery of firearms training to nursing and pregnant law enforcement officers. Page 2 CURRICULUM VITAE – MICHAEL K. HARRIGAN Served as a member of the FBI’s Shooting Incident Review Group comprised of senior managers and executives charged with reviewing all incidents where a firearm was discharged, to include both intentional shootings and accidental/negligent discharges; conducted detailed analyses of these incidents to ensure the application of force, or handling of the firearm, was in alignment with agency policies; reviewed over 75 such cases. Some of the aspects examined were the following: • Compliance with the FBI’s Deadly Force Policy. • Compliance with agency procedures and policies. • Pre-incident planning to ensure known risks were properly documented and appropriate contingencies developed. • Examination of the effectiveness of current policies and procedures and changes/updates recommendations. • Assessment of current training doctrines and recommendation of changes to improve agent performance in the operational mission environment. • Performance of equipment and improvement recommendations. Conducted a comprehensive analysis of five years of FBI use-of-force incidents to support “data- driven” innovations in training and equipment to ensure training is fully supportive of the armed agent in the execution of his/her duties. Analysis focused on weapons used, number of shots fired, distances, ballistic performance of projectiles, pre-operational planning considerations, performance of equipment, plus over 100 other data points. The intent of such analysis was to adjust training and equipment to better address the threats faced by agents on the street. 2013 - 2016 Chief, FBI National Academy (FBINA), Quantico, VA Managed the daily operations of the nation’s preeminent senior law enforcement leadership academy, graduating nearly 900 students annually. The FBINA was established in 1935 to professionalize and standardize the nation’s law enforcement standards. FBINA students are drawn from the senior leadership ranks of local, state, tribal, federal, and international law enforcement organizations. The goal of the institution is to bring the best and the brightest emerging law enforcement leaders together to share best practices and build a cohesive network to address current challenges in the profession. During his tenure at the FBINA, Mr. Harrigan instituted the following initiatives: • Conducted a comprehensive examination of existing leadership curriculum with the goal of deepening the effectiveness of the training. • Established an advisory board, consisting of academic and law enforcement executives, to examine current FBINA curriculum and best practices in order to ensure the organization grows to meet the needs of the global law enforcement profession. • Reinvigorated the FBINA speaker bureau by bringing in more relevant speakers to address emerging law enforcement issues. • Addressed the issue of suicide, substance abuse, and PTSD through the integration of a purpose-driven philosophy into the FBINA, to include the establishment of a course focused on these critical issues. • Focused aggressively on the issue of legitimacy in law enforcement in the wake of Page 3 CURRICULUM VITAE – MICHAEL K. HARRIGAN the Ferguson matter and the publication of the President’s 21st Century Policing Initiative. • Integrated student presentations into the speaker program to provide a first-hand

Enemies of freedom come under many guises. Our society today is in a great state of unrest. Many citizens are confused and troubled. For the first time, some are confronted with issues and decisions relating to the rights and dignity of their fellow countrymen, problems which heretofore they had skirted or ignored. We have in our midst hatemongers, bigots, and riotous agitators, many of whom are at opposite poles philosophically but who spew similar doctrines of prejudice and intolerance. They exploit hate and fear for personal gain and self­aggrandizement.

  • Behavioral Science Unit
    Behavioral Science Unit Behavioral Science Unit (BSU) was one of the original instructional components of the FBI's Training Division at Quantico, Virginia. Its mission was to develop and provide programs of training, research, and consultation in the behavioral andsocial sciences for the Federal Bureau of Investigation and law enforcement community that would improve or enhance their administration, operational effectiveness, and understanding of violent crime. The BSU was established in 1972 at the FBI Academy, and was disbanded in 2014. Through its legacy of training, research, and consultation activities, the BSU developed techniques, tactics, and procedures that have become a staple of behavioral-based programs that support the law enforcement, intelligence, and military communities. It is here where the term "serial killer" was coined and where criminal investigative analysis and "profiling" were developed. Many of these programs eventually developed into stand-alone programs, units, and centers such as the National Center for the Analysis of Violent Crime (NCAVC), Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU), Undercover Safeguard Unit, Crisis Negotiation Unit, Hostage Rescue Team, and Employee Assistance Unit. The mission of the BSU was to be the premier unit for developing and facilitating relevant programs of training, research, and consultation in the behavioral sciences for the FBI workforce, including the law enforcement, intelligence, and military communities that will improve their effectiveness in furtherance of the strategic priorities of the FBI. This is accomplished through the creation of innovative bodies of knowledge in specialty areas and applied research on significant behavioral science issues for use in training and consultation in support of academic, program, and operational matters.

Jarvis Dr. Stephen R. Parson Dr. Letitia A. Combs September 15, 2004 Falls Church, Virginia Key Words: Residential Adult Learning, Adult Education CHARACTERISTICS OF RESIDENTIAL ADULT LEARNING IN THE FBI NATIONAL ACADEMY LEARNING ENVIRONMENT AND THE IMPACT ON PARTICIPANT’S ATTITUDE OF SATISFACTION By Thomas Catron Christenberry Dr. Marcie Boucouvalas, Chair Human Development (Adult Learning and Human Resource Development) (ABSTRACT) Using the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) 212th session of the National Academy, a residential adult learning environment, as a case study and the 1996 research on participant’s perception of residential adult learning environments by Dr. Jean Anderson Fleming, this study examined the relationship among the characteristics (overarching themes: detachment and continuity and descriptive themes: building relationships in residence, learning in residence, and individual change in residence) and how this relationship impacts the participant’s attitude of satisfaction with the program. A 33-item Likert scale, developed by the researcher, was used to collect the data from 244 police officers and the Kropp-Verner Attitude Scale was used for measuring the overall participant attitude of satisfaction with the residential learning environment. Demographic data were also collected from the participants to provide an overall profile of the respondents and each police officer had the opportunity to respond to an open-ended question at the end of the survey.

  • Law Enforcement Intelligence: a Guide for State, Local, and Tribal Law Enforcement Agencies
    David L. Carter, Ph.D. School of Criminal Justice Michigan State University Law Enforcement Intelligence: A Guide for State, Local, and Tribal Law Enforcement Agencies November 2004 David L. Carter, Ph.D. This project was supported by Cooperative Agreement #2003-CK-WX-0455 by the U.S. Department of Justice Office of Community Oriented Policing Services. Points of view or opinions contained in this document are those of the author and do not necessarily represent the official position or policies of the U.S. Department of Justice or Michigan State University. Preface The world of law enforcement intelligence has changed dramatically since September 11, 2001. State, local, and tribal law enforcement agencies have been tasked with a variety of new responsibilities; intelligence is just one. In addition, the intelligence discipline has evolved significantly in recent years. As these various trends have merged, increasing numbers of American law enforcement agencies have begun to explore, and sometimes embrace, the intelligence function. This guide is intended to help them in this process. The guide is directed primarily toward state, local, and tribal law enforcement agencies of all sizes that need to develop or reinvigorate their intelligence function. Rather than being a manual to teach a person how to be an intelligence analyst, it is directed toward that manager, supervisor, or officer who is assigned to create an intelligence function. It is intended to provide ideas, definitions, concepts, policies, and resources. It is a primer- a place to start on a new managerial journey. Every effort was made to incorporate the state of the art in law enforcement intelligence: Intelligence-Led Policing, the National Criminal Intelligence Sharing Plan, the FBI Intelligence Program, the array of new intelligence activities occurring in the Department of Homeland Security, community policing, and various other significant developments in the reengineered arena of intelligence.

THE POWER OF PEOPLE: BUILDING AN INTEGRATED NATIONAL SECURITY PROFESSIONAL ST SYSTEM FOR THE 21 CENTURY November 2010 II About the Project on National Security Reform The transpartisan Project on National Security Reform (PNSR) was established to assist the nation in an urgently needed transformation of the national security system. PNSR has differentiated itself in many ways, especially by its vision for a future national security system, from numerous prior efforts that sought to rethink national security for the 21st century. PNSR envisions a collaborative, agile, and innovative system that integrates all elements of national power – both vertically and horizontally – and successfully addresses security challenges based on timely, informed decisions and decisive action. PNSR has developed a network that touches the broad spectrum of public and private-sector partners and participants that are critical to traditional and nontraditional security threats and opportunities. Whereas the first phase of PNSR’s work focused on identifying problems and developing recommendations, it subsequently has focused on development of tools for actual implementation and applying its holistic principles for long-term reform to many of today’s challenges. This unique focus has provided a deeper understanding of the challenges.
