Each officer can absorb and understand the training in smaller, manageable segments (instead of taking an 8-hour course at the end of the year).
Ensure all officers are trained at the same time with the same information, keeping everyone current with the law. This eliminates the need for an agency representative or supervisor to summarize training they received elsewhere.
All training can be completed on-duty, saving your agency on training costs such as overtime and back-filling shifts while officers attend external training.
Receive updates as they come out, rather than a summary course at the end of the year that risks your staff relying on outdated laws
By staying current with the law, you can reduce the risk of civil liability and case dismissals, ensuring your actions are aligned with the latest legal standards.
