2 min. readlast update: 06.25.2024

We recognize that many law enforcement agencies employ personnel who are not commissioned peace officers but still require specialized training.

Training for Non-Commissioned Personnel

  • Inclusive Training: We offer a variety of courses and training opportunities specifically designed for non-commissioned law enforcement agency personnel.

  • Course Offerings: These include, but are not limited to, courses on investigations, evidence collection, crime scene processing, and many other essential areas of law enforcement work.

Availability and Policies

  • Provider Discretion: While our platform hosts many training events for non-commissioned personnel, the availability of these events to non-commissioned attendees is at the discretion of the training provider.

  • Contact Providers: We recommend you contact the training provider directly prior to registration to confirm whether non-commissioned personnel can attend the specific course you are interested in.

Training for Retired Officers

  • Retired Status Commission: Many retired officers maintain a retired status commission, which often requires periodic training, such as firearms qualification, to keep their commission active.

  • Provider Policies: As with non-commissioned personnel, the ability for retired officers to attend certain training events depends on the policies of the training provider.

  • Confirm Availability: Retired officers should reach out to the training provider prior to registration to ensure they can participate in the required training events.

Benefits of Our Courses

  • Skill Building: These courses help non-commissioned personnel build their skills and knowledge, enabling them to better serve their agencies and communities.

  • High-Quality Training: We believe that all law enforcement personnel, whether active or retired, should have access to high-quality training.
