Law enforcement agencies across the country are facing greater demands for training while facing issues of personnel availability, funding, and elevated crime rates, and sheriff’s offices are not immune. Better trained deputies have a stronger understanding of the “why” of their agencies’ approaches, are more confident in their work, and can lead to decreased citizen complaints. On-demand online training, also known as eLearning, can help bridge training gaps, allowing agencies to train their deputies on a wide variety of topics without having to backfill shifts or pay overtime, and focusing training dollars and time on subjects that must be taught in person. In this seminar, attendees will hear from sheriffs who have taken advantage of eLearning to improve their offices’ ability to train their deputies, as well as representatives from the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS Office) and National Center for Policing Innovation about best practices for developing and deploying eLearning. Attendees will also have an opportunity to learn about how their own offices can take advantage of free eLearning opportunities from the COPS Office, the only component of the U.S. Department of Justice with policing in its title.

PRESENTERS: Jeremy Kommel-Bernstein, Policy Analyst, USDOJ Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS Office), Sheriff Todd Delain, Brown County Sheriff’s Office, WI, Sheriff Jose Quiroz, Arlington County Sheriff’s Office, VA, and Sheila Gunderman, Director of Programs, National Center for Policing Innovation
