          The Ethical Awareness Instructor course is an essential     
          functional part of the Law Enforcement Officers             
          Facilitator's Program.  This program aims at the hearts and 
          the minds of the law enforcement personnel to gain a solid  
          commitment to ethics both personal and organizational.  Law 
          enforcement personnel are trained to conduct workshops      
          which are a productive way to reduce stress, conflict,      
          community misunderstanding, and litigation brought on by    
          the indifference of some public service personnel to the    
          human needs of their clients. At the bottom of the ethical  
          awareness experience is the goal of changing undesired      
          attitudes and behaviors while reinforcing proper and        
          acceptable performance.  In policing it is often the        
          insensitive, unjudicial, and inhumane use of power that     
          causes a standing confrontation between the police and the  
          members of the community.  The workshop experience has been 
          proven to sensitize law enforcement personnel to the        
          problem and to the need for fair and impartial treatment of 
          all citizens.

          This course is for law enforcement personnel who            
          participate with the use of force issues. The use of        
          force is inherent to law enforcement. Officers are required 
          and expected to use the level of force reasonably           
          necessary to accomplish their objectives and to overcome    
          an unlawful resistance. Managing the use of force by        
          officers is a challenge facing law enforcement organizations
          today. Course topics include:  in-depth analysis of force   
          continuums; factors that determine "reasonable use of       
          force"; recent court decisions effecting policy making;     
          liability issues; and training of personnel strategies.     
          An assessment will be given at the end of this course       
          consisting of one or more of the following:  written test,  
          oral test, oral exam, practical exam of performance of      
          skills and/or peer assessment.                              

          This course is for certified BMP instructors. The goal is to
          familiarize instructors in contemporary multi-media methods 
          to further professionalize and enhance their presentations. 
          Topics include: use of computers, the Internet and present- 
          tation software; video and audio enhancement; writing       
          training articles and research skills.                      
          Each participant will be required to develop a ten-minute   
          presentation or write a five-hundred word article for       
          publication utilizing multi-media methods learned in this   
          course.                                                     
          An assessment will be given at the end of this course       
          consisting of one or more of the following: written test;

          learned and/or peer assessment.

          training program. This program is designed to argment it in 
          order to lessen new hire attrition. Additionally this       
          course will address the mentor-protege relationship, leader-
          ship, ethics, counseling, and adult learning strategies.    
          An authentic assessment will be given at the end of this    
          course consisting of a practical exam of performance.

          designed to train officer safety tactics under realistic    
          conditions. Practical application of building search, suspi-
          cious and high risk encounters will be instructed, simulated
          and evaluated during full spectrum simulation exercises.    
          Officers will participate in firearms and defensive tactic  
          stimulus response scenarios that will incorporate the use of
          simmunition as well as other non-lethal weapons and tactics.

          the instruction is in dynamic exercises requiring running,  
          jumping and self-defense during controlled encounters.

          The course provides cognitive and physical techniques that  
          will enable the coach to develop programs of physical       
          training based upon the principle that becoming             
          physically fit is achievable when pursued in a systematic   
          manner.  The program will require discipline, effort,       
          motivation, and the desire to not only meet the demands of  
          the facilitator, but to enhance their student's overall     
          quantity and quality of life.
