One of the most critical tasks in law enforcement involves the use of tactical officers to accomplish high risk operations. This program takes a three-tier approach. First, participants will be presented with the legal cases that impact tactical operations and ultimately, liability. Second, participants will be presented with policy issues that may be considered for implementation. Finally, the training turns toward the practical implementation of the legal and policy issues in a manner that does not compromise tactical operations or officer safety.
Law Enforcement Training: 12 high risk critical tasks
Date: Feb. 23, 2023
Time: 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. EST
Location: KACo Headquarters, Frankfort
Over the last two decades law enforcement agencies and individual law enforcement officers in the United States have been the subject of intense public scrutiny. Law enforcement officers must have a working knowledge of the developing laws governing police civil liability and discipline. This course is designed to assist law enforcement officers in assessing their level of exposure to risk by examining court decisions that have interpreted acceptable standards of conduct by officers.
