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

Police officers frequently encounter people with mental illness. Approximately five percent of U.S. residents have a serious mental illness, and ten to fifteen percent of jailed people have severe mental illness. An estimated seven percent of police contacts in jurisdictions with 100,000 or more people involve the mentally ill.

A three-city study found that ninety-two percent of patrol officers had at least one encounter with a mentally ill person in crisis in the previous month, and officers averaged six such encounters per month. The Lincoln (Nebraska) Police Department found that it handled over 1,500 mental health investigation cases in 2002, and that it spent more time on these cases than on injury traffic accidents, burglaries, or felony assaults. The New York City Police Department responds to about 150,000 emotionally disturbed persons calls per year.

Mentally ill response calls can be a tedious and potentially dangerous process. Many factors are taken into consideration when approaching these individuals. This course details the verbal, environmental, and behavioral cues that should be considered when responding to calls for service.
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 Community Safety (NAPPI) elective online Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE) training course is offered by OSS Academy® for Texas Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators.

When out in the community, the first thing you want to ask yourself is, “How am I going to stay safe today?” This is the ultimate “I” statement! Most people tend to minimize the risk to themselves either because nothing has ever gone wrong, or they think they have enough experience to anticipate a problem.

The information in this module provides a framework to keep you safer in the community and more effective when facing unique, unexpected, challenging, difficult, or even dangerous situations. We will discuss ways to anticipate problems and predict violence as well as how to create a safer community/home visit from start to finish. As we explore the content of this course, take note of the different ways you can keep yourself safe each and every day.

Has an individual ever threatened you? How did you react? Is there anything you would have done differently to handle the situation more effectively?

Many of us have been threatened at one time or another, but how did we know if the threat was real? There are some underlying theories about threats and threat assessment. This module provides insight into how to assess the credibility of a threat. The goal is to provide a framework to keep you safer and more effective when facing unique, unexpected, challenging, difficult, or even dangerous situations.

Please note, the entire NAPPI Community Safety Package course, including final exam(s) and course evaluation(s) must be completed in order to receive four (4) hours of course credit.

Overview

Few events associated with law enforcement are more tragic for all concerned than an officer-involved shooting. This is particularly true when the shooting results in a fatality.

This course will help you gain a fuller understanding of this devastating phenomenon, and provide you with the information necessary to recognize these situations as they develop, so you can facilitate an alternative action plan and response, when practical.

Overview
This is a Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE) Officer-Involved Shooting Survival online training course offered for Texas Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators.

No event creates as much trauma for an officer and their department, as an officer-involved shooting that involves use of deadly force against another person. A department's response to an officer-involved shooting has an unbelievably huge impact on the officer's future emotional and psychological wellbeing. How an officer eventually resolves the shooting incident emotionally and psychologically is dependent upon his or her ability to respond appropriately to the stressors of the incident, the subsequent investigation, and the post trauma stress indicators. Are you and your department prepared to be survivors after an officer-involved shooting incident? This course is a guide for properly handling such a traumatic incident.

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.
