SUMMARY:Tactical Spanish for Law Enforcement
DESCRIPTION:This course will provide officers with an overview of critical phrases they need know to effectively communicate with Spanish speaking members of their community. \nEffective communication is critical for law enforcement and an inability to communicate can have dire results. As law enforcement officers we routinely interact with diverse groups of individuals\, and we need the ability to communicate with them. The course is designed to teach officers basic communication skills during common police-citizen encounters with Spanish speaking individuals. \nThis is not a “Death by PowerPoint” course. Participants will be interacting with the instructor throughout the course and learn common Spanish phrases and learn proper responses by engaging with the instructor. The best way to learn is by doing it!

SUMMARY:Miranda for Patrol
DESCRIPTION:Learn the complex rules of Miranda to ensure you obtain admissible statements! \nMany of us were able to recite the Miranda warnings from watching TV long before we became cops. Although we can recite them\, many of us don’t really understand them. This class focuses on the basics of Miranda\, when officers are required to advise a suspect of his or her Miranda rights\, and how to obtain a valid waiver. There is a myth that only detectives advise subjects of their Miranda warnings. Not anymore! The use of body-worn cameras has given defense attorneys a front row seat to police citizen encounters to argue “custody.” \nThis class will teach officers how to obtain valid statements and capture them on their body-worn cameras.

SUMMARY:Vehicle Extractions & Hidden Hands
DESCRIPTION:This training is being created due to the many current law enforcement experiences with violent resistive and dangerous subjects coupled with the rising hostility towards police officers and law enforcement in general. The need for proper vehicle extraction training is invaluable. Officers are expected to be able to handle a physical confrontation quickly\, efficiently and professionally as they are ultimately responsible for the safety of all involved parties. \nThe first response of a Law enforcement officer who gets into a verbal confrontation with a resisting occupant of a motor vehicle\, should be to de-escalate and ask the suspect out of the vehicle. The Vehicle extraction training will be focused on when an officer is unable to de-escalate\, and the resister refuses to get out of the vehicle. At this point\, the officer must rely on force options to remove the suspect from the vehicle and place him/her under arrest. These techniques\, when applied correctly\, will remove the resistor from the vehicle without causing unnecessary injury to the suspect or the officer. These techniques give officers force options to effectively and safely remove a resisting suspect from a motor vehicle. \nVehicle Extraction for Law Enforcement will provide participants with functional knowledge of Vehicle Extraction techniques to subdue non-compliant occupants. Participants will be able to demonstrate proper vehicle extraction techniques for effectiveness and safety of both the officer member and the suspect. This course was developed due to the rise of non-compliant occupants in motor vehicles\, failing to provide proper identification and refusing to exit the vehicle. Having a functioning knowledge of vehicle extraction gives an officer the ability to quickly control a suspect and protects the officer against the dangers presented by a non-compliant occupant\, including existing traffic and the occupant’s vehicle becoming a weapon against the officer. The techniques learned in this course are designed to keep both the officer and the suspect safe and have been proven in real life situations.

SUMMARY:Below 100 Intensive Training
DESCRIPTION:Below 100 is a national officer safety initiative that aims to reduce annual line of duty deaths to below 100\, a number not seen since 1943.  The United States has averaged over 150 officers killed per year in the last ten years. Together\, we can bring that number to below 100.  We have identified five key tenets by which we can improve officer safety and prevent unnecessary Line of Duty Deaths: Wear your seatbelt; Wear your vest; Watch your speed; WIN! – What’s Important Now?; and Complacency Kills!  These areas are where each law enforcement officer can make a difference.   This is one of the most important Officer Safety training programs offered to law enforcement today.  Below 100 isn’t just about statistics – It’s about each and every officer\, supervisor and leaders taking individual and collective responsibility for the decisions and actions that contribute to officer and public safety. \nINSTRUCTOR:        Corporal Geoffrey T. Bush\, Pennsylvania State Police Academy  \n                                      EVOC/Officer Safety Instructor and Below 100 Core Trainer\n                                      Email: gbush@pa.gov \nCOST:     FREE TO ALL LAW ENFORCEMENT \n        LOCATION:      Stafford Performing Arts Center (STAC) \n100 McKinley Ave \nManahawkin NJ 08050 \nCoffee\, Water will be available. \nREGISTRATION:   Register by emailing training officer Marisa Lawrence at mlawrence@staffordpolice.org \n\nJust send agency name and how many will be attending.
