Overview
This is an OSS Academy® Intelligence-Led Policing online training course offered for Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators.
The world of law enforcement intelligence has changed dramatically since September 11, 2001. Law enforcement agencies have taken on a variety of new responsibilities. Intelligence is just one, albeit a very important, function of the new policing responsibilities in this homeland security era of law enforcement. Intelligence disciplines have evolved significantly in recent years, as various forms of military intelligence and analysis are adopted for civilian policing. As these various trends have emerged, increasing numbers of American law enforcement agencies have begun to explore the intelligence function and the philosophy of Intelligence Led Policing as a natural extension of community oriented policing concepts being employed by many agencies in the United States, Canada, and Europe. This course will introduce you to the basics of Intelligence Led Policing.
Please note, the entire course final exam(s), and course evaluation(s) must be completed in order to receive one (1) hour of course credit.

Carkhuff of the Carkhuff Institute of Human Technology, and his associates. In 1977, this model was refined because of actual correctional experiences and new insight into correctional officer training. The description of this refined model is contained in two resources, IPC: Interpersonal Communications Skills for Correctional Management, 1977, and IPC: Interpersonal Communications Skills for Correctional Management Trainers Guide, 1977.

Overview
This is an OSS Academy® Intoxicated Driver Management online training course offered for Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators.
You are on patrol when you observe a vehicle stopping long before it arrives at the red light. Then it pulls forward and stops several times until it arrives at the appropriate stopping point for the light. Do you know, statistically speaking, what the probability is that the driver is intoxicated? Can you stop the vehicle and speak with the driver based on what you have just observed? You decide to stop the vehicle. You ask for a drivers license and observe the driver pass by the license three times before you point out to him where his license is. Having observed all of this can you ask the driver about his alcohol consumption that evening? Can you require him to perform Standardized Field Sobriety Tests or is that a violation of his constitutional rights? This course will answer these and many more questions about handling the intoxicated driver.

Overview
This is a Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE) elective Investigating Financial Crimes & Reporting #4103 online training course offered for Texas Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators.
Al Capone was an infamous gangster motivated by control and money. Though crimes may be predicated on other motivations, if a financial benefit is sought, a financial crime often accompanies other deadly offenses as a byproduct. As a first responder, you can always follow the money in your investigation.
Understanding financial crimes such as money laundering, identity theft, fraud, counterfeiting, embezzlement, tax evasion, forgery, bribery, and other offenses will make you a more effective first responder.
Accurate reporting of offenses creates the integrity of financial crime investigations and aids in prosecuting offenders. This course introduces these concepts and serves as a guide to help you navigate through some of the more complex offenses. Remember, one of our most notorious organized crime bosses was thwarted through a Financial Crimes investigation.
Please note, the entire course, final exam(s), and course evaluation(s) must be completed in order to receive four (4) hours of course credit.
