This training will offer dynamic workshops for sworn Law Enforcement Officers from state, local, campus, and tribal agencies. These highly requested courses are presented by subject matter experts from law enforcement agencies across the United States. This training is certified by TCLEOSE.
“Education is very Important and is needed to stay a step ahead in deterring Crime. We also need to freshen up and continue to learn everything and anything new when these training opportunities are available”. Sheriff Oscar Lopez ( Jim Wells County. Alice, Texas)
Training topics include: Roadside Interview & Interrogation, Active Shooter, Aircraft Mission Procedure, Officer Survival, Homicide Investigations, interview & Interrogation, Concealed Weapons, Domestic Violence, Leadership: Behavior (Supervisors Only), Human Trafficking and Threat Assessment.
“While we will not always share the same vision on every issue, there is much we can learn from one another, this training will become instrumental as our officers face challenges out on the field. I will continue to expand the opportunities for The Webb County Sheriff’s Office and any other Law Enforcement Agency near us that doesn’t have the resources to bring training to their area”. Sheriff Martin Cuellar stated.
