Overview
This is a Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE) elective Intellectual & Developmental Disabilities (IDD) Training for Jailers #2831 online training course offered for Texas Jailers, Peace Officers, and Telecommunicators.
This comprehensive online training program is designed for jailers to enhance their understanding and response to individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD) in correctional settings. The course covers key areas such as identification, communication strategies, housing considerations, and trauma-informed care for individuals with IDD. Jailers will learn how to recognize the signs of IDD and implement best practices to ensure safety, dignity, and effective management of inmates with these disabilities.
Key topics include:
Identification and Reporting: Methods for screening and identifying inmates suspected of having an IDD, and understanding the importance of early identification to ensure proper care and safety.
Trauma-Informed Care: Real-world scenarios and strategies for applying trauma-informed care when engaging with individuals with IDD, emphasizing safety, security, and minimizing victimization.
Communication Strategies: Techniques to facilitate clear and respectful communication with individuals with IDD, including considerations for inmates with autism spectrum disorder, using simple language, providing time for processing, and maintaining appropriate boundaries.
Management and Housing Considerations: Guidelines for assessing housing needs, ensuring appropriate placements, and promoting a safe environment for inmates with IDD.
Collaboration with External Resources: The role of Local Intellectual and Developmental Disability Authorities (LIDDA) and Local Mental Health and Behavioral Health Authorities (LMHA/LBHA) in supporting inmates with IDD, and the steps jailers must take when an inmate matches the IDD criteria.
Learners will engage with practical scenarios, role-plays, and discussions to develop the skills needed to identify, assess, and manage individuals with IDD effectively. By the end of the course, jailers will be equipped with the tools and knowledge to promote a safer and more supportive environment for both inmates and staff.
Prerequisites:
. None required.
Duration:
. Self-paced, approximately 4-6 hours.
Target Audience:
. Jailers, correctional officers, and other facility staff working with incarcerated individuals.
This training is crucial for ensuring that all inmates, especially those with intellectual and developmental disabilities, receive the care and respect they deserve while in custody.

Overview
This is a Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE) elective Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act (LEOSA) #3836 online training course offered for Texas Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators.
LEOSA, the Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act, is one of the most often misunderstood laws impacting current and former law enforcement officers. It is far too important a law to be guessed at or to use random posts on Facebook as a guide.
If you are an officer or former officer, you must know whether you can carry a concealed handgun under LEOSA. You need to KNOW this information BEFORE you travel to another jurisdiction.
The information in this course can enhance the knowledge of persons who carry under LEOSA, those issuing LEOSA credentials, and active LEOs who must make on-the-spot decisions during encounters with those claiming a LEOSA defense.
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 the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE) Peace Officers & Open Carry Training #8837 course offered in an online training course format for Texas Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators.
With the close of the 2015 Legislature, Texas became the 43rd state in the U.S. to clarify that Texas residents had the right to open carry a handgun in most government and public spaces. This legislative enactment expanded the rights of qualified Texas residents who already enjoyed concealed carry rights, and set some limitations. Our course discusses enforcement issues, as well as the basis for these rights, the responsibilities of citizens as they exercise their rights, and the duties of peace officers in guaranteeing these rights.

Overview
This is a Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE) elective Proactive Safety and Security Watch in High-Risk Environments #7821 online training course for Texas Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators.
Safety and Security duties extend beyond a standard fire watch - they include keeping people safe, protecting property, and ensuring operations run smoothly in places where standard safety measures might not apply.
While these duties began with OSHA rules for fire hazards, law enforcement, healthcare, and detention, officers must look for security risks, unsafe situations, and signs of trouble in all settings.
This Safety and Security Watch role is meant to fill important gaps, like broken safety systems, construction risks, or open entryways.
In the end, Safety and Security Watch is about maintaining control by proactively identifying and resolving issues before they can escalate.
Please note, the entire course, final exam(s), and course evaluation(s) must be completed in order to receive three (3) hours of course credit.

This is a Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE) elective RADAR and LIDAR Refresher: Accuracy, Compliance, and Courtroom Articulation #2065 online training course designed for Texas Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators who have previously completed initial RADAR and/or LIDAR operator training. The course may also be completed by Jailers and Telecommunicators for applicable continuing education credit.
Important: This is a refresher course only. It is not an initial RADAR or LIDAR certification course and does not qualify an officer as a newly certified RADAR or LIDAR operator.
Speed measurement duties extend beyond identifying speeding violations. They include improving roadway safety, reducing crash risks, protecting the public, and ensuring traffic laws are enforced fairly, accurately, and effectively.
Law enforcement officers assigned speed enforcement responsibilities should maintain a working understanding of applicable legal standards, operational safety practices, equipment limitations, proper testing procedures, and real-world traffic conditions.
This refresher course reinforces previously learned knowledge and critical operational skills associated with the proper use of RADAR and LIDAR technologies. Emphasis is placed on officer safety, measurement accuracy, legal compliance, equipment reliability, documentation, and clear courtroom articulation.
Ultimately, effective speed measurement involves proactive risk reduction, lawful and defensible enforcement, and the protection of lives through professional traffic operations.
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.

Overview
This is a Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE) elective Recording Law Enforcement Actions online training course offered for Texas Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators.
Advances in technology and the widespread use of smartphones, cameras, social media, and other recording devices have significantly changed the environment in which law enforcement officers perform their duties. Officers routinely encounter members of the public who photograph, record, or otherwise document law enforcement activities.
This course examines legal and practical considerations associated with the recording of law enforcement actions. Participants will explore individual rights, officer responsibilities, and appropriate law enforcement responses when members of the public record police activities. The course also addresses important considerations involving officer safety, lawful police operations, privacy, evidence, and interactions with individuals engaged in recording activities.
The course is designed to help law enforcement professionals better understand the legal considerations surrounding recording activities while maintaining professionalism, protecting individual rights, and effectively carrying out their lawful duties.
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 a Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE) Roadblocks & Checkpoints online training course offered for Texas Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators.
Law enforcement officers assigned to patrol public roads have a general duty to protect the public. Officers may be assigned by supervisors to support the establishment of a planned checkpoint, or participate in a roadblock in search of a criminal suspect or for some other reason. As officers, we know the 4th Amendment guidelines regarding search and seizure generally require officers to have reasonable individualized suspicion to stop or spot check persons and vehicles for the primary purpose of detecting evidence of ordinary wrongdoing. In this course, we will discuss how the reasonable suspicion requirement is balanced with the need to protect the public in general, or to apprehend a suspect, and how this can be accomplished safely.
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.

Student Accolades:
I completed the program last night. I must say, I am impressed. I am a Chief of Police in California and am looking to relocate to Texas. The OSS Academy has afforded me a great opportunity to painlessly complete some of the training requirements I need. My goal is to take the TCOLE exam in the next couple of months, then continue to use OSS to load up on more required training as I seek employment. See you at the next course! Best,
- D. Steidle, Chief in California
I was just writing to say thank you for what you guys do. I was out of the police for 9 years a decided I missed it and was ready to get back in. I signed up and took the courses I needed and passed my reactivation test the first try. I am currently back out on patrol and loving it. Again Thank You,
- J. Payne, Texas Peace Officer
I would like to take this time to thank you for your guidance and amazing customer service. Everything about the course was clear and concise. The study material was sufficient and I will be referencing that material as I proceed with the process. I highly recommend OSS Academy to everyone thinking of crossing over to Texas Law Enforcement.
- E. Carrasquillo, Out of State Peace Officer
I took the state test today and scored a 85 1st attempt. Thx for the help
- J. Carter, Texas Peace Officer
I was able to retire from the New York State Police and transfer to the Bexar County Sheriff's Department, and I couldn't have done it without your assistance. Thanks!
- K. Page, Texas Peace Officer
Good afternoon ... It took a while but I was finally able to get a test date for this morning. The test took about me about an hour and I scored a 91. I don’t think I could have done a whole lot better as there is a great deal to know, and I did not attend a police academy, but am a retired federal agent who took your supplemental course. I’m appreciative of having been able to complete your supplemental course ... at my convenience, as opposed to months at an academy. Kindest regards,
