SUMMARY:Developing & Refining the Essential Skills of Supervision & Leadership
DESCRIPTION:Course Summary: \nEffective front-line supervision is essential for the success of any law enforcement agency. It is here where the vision and planning of the organization is put to the test. The front-line supervisor implements the goals and objectives established by upper management and the senior executive. If the performance of the front-line supervisor does not meet expectations\, the goals and objectives may not be reached. It is imperative that senior leadership prepare and develop their current and future front-line supervisors. \nThis training will cover essential supervision and leadership theory\, both as a precursor for future and new supervisors\, but also as a needed refresher for existing supervisors. This 2-Day course will also utilize an assessment center component for students to problem solve and respond to common employee-centered issues. The primary focus of the exercises will relate to employee performance and discipline\, both of which new supervisors have difficulties. \nCourse Highlights: \n\nInstructed by current law enforcement executives\nExamine Essential Leadership and Supervision Theories\nAssessment Center Practical Scenarios designed to force students to address subordinates’ poor performance and/or disciplinary issues\nTeaches students how to have difficult discussions with subordinates

SUMMARY:Radicalization\, Sovereign Citizens & Extremists
DESCRIPTION:Our country is in the midst of an ideological civil war\, and those in law enforcement find themselves in the crosshairs while trying to keep the peace. From the events that have unfolded in the past few years\, from Charlottesville to January 6th\, as well as historic terror attacks like Oklahoma City Bombing\, we can see the very fabric of our society being pulled at the seams. This class breaks down the fundamental ideology of the various extremist belief systems\, from sovereign citizens to Patriot Front\, as well as Fringe groups that have taken up the headlines like Antifa and Boogaloo Bois. Attendees will learn the subtle indicators of an extremist or hate group presence in their jurisdictions\, and the best course of action to move forward. Such topics as home-grown violent extremists (HGVE)\, racially motivated violent extremists (RMVE)\, and anti-government anti-authority violent extremists (AAGAVE) will be covered in depth\, and understand how social media platforms and messaging services\, like Telegram\, play a crucial role in investigations into these actors. \nAttendees will understand how conspiracies\, often birthed and fostered online\, are often the cornerstone to the extremist mindset\, specifically concerning QAnon. Attendees will also learn about how extremist content is often disguised as pro-police\, often resulting in law enforcement sharing or liking memes or posts from accounts attributed to extremism which can be extremely detrimental. Attendees will also learn of various sovereign citizen movements and the best course of action should there be any law enforcement encounters. This is the first class of its kind\, attendees will walk away with a better understanding of the biggest threat to not only law enforcement\, but the United States as a whole. \nUnderstanding the various extremist belief systems and extremist subsets\, and tell-tale signs of their presence in an area. \nRecognize Sovereign Citizen ideology and best practices for sovereign citizen related activity. \nA deeper understanding of prevalent conspiracies and how the internet\, specifically social media and messaging apps\, play a crucial role in spreading extremist ideology and are radicalization precursors. \nWhat law enforcement can do to help combat these ideologies\, from a Local to Federal level. \nUnderstand the fine line where First Amendment/Freedom of Speech ends and Extremism/Radicalization begins.

SUMMARY:Cannabis lmpairment Detection
DESCRIPTION:This program will give officers an overview of drugged driving and when they should contact a DRE. \nThe legalization of marijuana has created a new challenge for law enforcement officers: investigating driving while under the influence of cannabis. Drugged driving indicators are different than those of driving under the influence of alcohol. \nThis one-day class is designed to give officers a comprehensive overview of the signs\, symptoms\, indicators\, and roadside tests that can help an officer determine if a driver is under the influence of cannabis. Officers will also get an overview of basic DWI case law\, as well as a review of recent DWI decisions.

SUMMARY:Pangaro: Pre-Employment Background Investigation
DESCRIPTION:*This course will presented in-person or remote. \nConducting a thorough and complete background investigation is one of the best ways to prevent future problems in your agency. Once a person is hired the process to remove them can be arduous and costly. \nMany agencies rely on pre-911 pre-employment practices such as blindly accepting candidates with the highest physical and/or academic test results.  State law requires us to take those qualifications into account; but the law does not require agencies to ignore the more important qualifiers such as the candidate’s character and ethical history\, financial responsibility\, temperament\, or record of interpersonal relationships. \nConducting an in-depth\, thorough\, and complete investigation of each candidate is the only way to protect your agency.  With this valuable information\, hiring committees can make informed decisions. This course covers the scope\, tactics\, and techniques necessary to reveal all negative traits as well as past criminal or inappropriate behaviors and actions on the part of applicants. \nInstructors will cover: \n\nGetting beyond the candidate’s best friends and pre-set\, practiced answers\nIdentifying areas of concern and recognizing potential red flags\nInterview techniques and tactics that can reveal a candidate’s beliefs and feelings on a variety of job-related topics\nGauging a candidate’s temperament beyond their answers\nPreparing and documenting a report including collecting and recording data and witness interviews\n\nThis course will also cover the legal requirements pertaining to when certain questions can be asked and how much information the applicant is obliged to provide.  What to do if you learn the employee has lied during any part of the process and when it is legally permissible to terminate the process? This program is designed so your agency can prevent the need for expensive lawsuits and worse\, the disruption of your agency or company as you fight to correct the problem.
