Electronic Control Device – Basics
Long Course Description

Course Number
OSS-ECDB-UOF

Price (Shown in U.S. Dollars)
15.00

Overview

This is an OSS Academy® Electronic Control Device - Basics online training course offered for Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators.

This course is designed as a familiarization, a review, or a refresher. The scope and scale of information regarding Electronic Control Devices (ECD) can be vast and varied, and is legally dynamic. Because electronic control devices are a relatively recent law enforcement innovation, research into the effects of exposure is ongoing, and the legal landscape has been evolving, but lagging in pace with developments. ECDs are often referred to by various names such as TASERs, CEDs, ECDs, or ECWs, but the applications are generally the same. The vast majority of officers in the U.S. are equipped with products from TASER International, Inc. For that reason, discussions in this course may refer to those products and their incumbent technologies. This course is not a product endorsement. The goal of this course is to provide information that will equip you to safely and effectively use your electronic control device in a defensible manner. Material in this course is not legal advice. As always, seek legal information and recommendations from your department's legal advisor.

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® Ethics for Law Enforcement online training course offered for Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators.

In the study of ethics, it is critical to understand that the motive is as important as the act.  When someone refrains from misconduct only because they fear negative repercussions, they cannot really be viewed as ethical. Ethics  is concerned with  encouraging  you to do what you know you  should  do.  It is not only  doing  the right  thing, but also doing it for the right reason. This course will help you by explaining the dynamics of ethics in the law enforcement field, how to better understand the ethical dilemmas of fellow officers, and how to avoid ethical pitfalls yourself.

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.

Price (Shown in U.S. Dollars)

Overview

 This is an   OSS Academy® Evidence Collection, Control, & Storage online training course offered for Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators.

Law enforcement officers, as part of their regular responsibilities, gain possession of types of evidence that vary widely by their very nature. Evidence may include a priceless work of art, the murder victim’s clothing, or even biohazardous materials. Such items of evidence must be held by law enforcement agencies under strict legal constraints and under the control and safekeeping of an evidence custodian from the beginning through the final disposition of the case. Collecting, storing, safekeeping, and managing evidence are serious responsibilities for all officers in any agency, not to mention, the evidence custodian. The failure of agencies to establish effective and efficient systems to gather, manage, and secure evidence has led to civil and criminal charges against officers. Additionally, not maintaining evidence correctly cripples the ability of the criminal justice system to successfully prosecute 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.

Price (Shown in U.S. Dollars)

Overview

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

An often quoted Supreme Court saying is …Officers are often forced to make split-second judgments in circumstances that are tense, uncertain and rapidly evolving.
Most people would probably agree that officers who encounter exigent circumstances should be permitted to do whatever is reasonably necessary to quickly defuse what is confronting them. The courts understand that officers must act quickly when they are facing an emergency, but they impose on officers a duty to act responsibly.
This course is designed to aid you in better understanding the various aspects of exigent circumstances, what is reasonable, and what is allowable and not so in an emergency.

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.
