COURSE DESCRIPTION:
Nothing is as important to government services as the relationship between law enforcement and the public that is served. Recent inflammatory actions and news stories have had a severe impact and the perception of law enforcement. Agencies and individual employees must understand their role and that every action and statement that is made reflects on the profession as a whole. This training will focus on not only individual employee attitudes and beliefs, but also organizational concepts that perpetuate a lack of trust with the community with a strong focus on de-escalation techniques. This course is appropriate for sworn police officers from the rank of Chief of Police to police officers.
