Overview
This is a Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE) elective Homicide Investigations online training course offered for Texas Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators.

Each year in the U.S. there are approximately 16,000 homicides reported, and probably another ±4,000 that are not reported, or are miscategorized. Most homicide investigations start with the arrival of the first officer at the scene. Yet, few officers are trained in the actual conduct of a homicide investigation. This course addresses some of the basic elements officers need to understand regarding homicide investigations, including the collection and protection of vital evidence, the types of homicides, and ultimately, determining causes and time of death.

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.

Overview

This is an OSS Academy® Human Remains Identification online training course offered for Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators

In an ideal investigation involving a deceased individual, the body would be found soon after death in a cool, dry, indoor environment. Unfortunately, this is seldom the case. When bodies are discovered in various states of decomposition, many good investigators assume that much of the information used to determine identity, time, and method of death are been lost. To the contrary, the processes a body naturally undergoes, both in life and death, provide a wealth of information to assist investigators in determining the identity of the individual, as well as the cause, manner, time, and circumstances of the death. In this course we explore and exploit these change through understanding.

Overview

This is an OSS Academy® Human Trafficking Crimes online training course offered for Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators.

Human trafficking and modern day slavery are very real problems for the most vulnerable people on the planet, and this includes men, women and children. The United Nations protocol defines human trafficking as the illegal trade of human beings, through abduction, the use, or threat, of force, deception, fraud, or sale for the purposes of sexual exploitation or forced labor. For many jurisdictions, trafficking in human life, like so many other issues becomes a local enforcement issue due primarily to nations failing to adequately enforce their borders.  It is not different in the United States and your state. In this course we define and discuss human trafficking from the global and local enforcement perspective, discuss the various types of trafficking, and probe  the legal and investigative elements of these crimes.

Please note, the entire course final exam(s), and course evaluation(s) must be completed in order to receive two (2) hours of course credit.

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.

Overview

This is an  OSS Academy® Investigative Detention online training course offered for Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators.

Of all police field operations that deter and thwart crime, resulting in the apprehension of criminals, the investigative detention is, by far, the most commonplace. After all, detentions occur at all hours of the day and night, and in virtually every imaginable public place, including streets, sidewalks, parks, parking lots, schools, shopping malls, and international airports. The outcome of detentions will vary. Some result in arrests. Some provide investigators with useful - often vital - information. Some are fruitless. All are dangerous. To help reduce the danger, and to confirm or dispel their suspicions, officers may do a variety of things.

This course will provide officers with some basic information on the best practices, techniques, and other pertinent information, in order to assist with  legal investigative detentions.

Please note, the entire course final exam(s), and course evaluation(s) must be completed in order to receive two (2) hours of course credit.

Overview

This is an  OSS Academy® Juvenile Interview & Interrogation online training course offered for Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators.

Juvenile interview and interrogation processes are undergoing unprecedented changes in many states. We are learning that juveniles are particularly prone to give false information, and even false confessions, when questioned by peace officers. As such, court decisions are leading police to question juveniles differently than adults. Interview and interrogation is standard training for law enforcement agencies. However, it typically does not cover the developmental differences between adults and youths, nor does it cover recommended techniques for interviewing and interrogating juvenile offenders.

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.

Overview
This is an  OSS Academy® Lineups & Eyewitness Identification online training course offered for Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators.

Eyewitnesses frequently play a vital role in uncovering the truth about a crime, and leading investigators to suspects. The evidence they provide can be critical in identifying, charging, and ultimately convicting suspected criminals. While all this is true, witnesses make mistakes.

This course addresses why it is absolutely essential that eyewitness evidence be accurate and reliable. It provides the student with detailed steps for using proven identification procedures to gain evidence from eyewitnesses. This means following sound protocols related to activities such as Showups, Mug Books and Composites, instructions to witnesses, composing and conducting Photo and Live Lineups, and documenting their results for later use.

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.
