CLASS DESCRIPTIONS:
ALEST: A program designed to empower Virginia law enforcement officers/agencies to achieve community enhancement through
the understanding and impartial enforcement of Virginia alcohol laws and regulations. Upon conclusion of this period of instruction,
the officer will become familiar with: history/future of Virginia ABC, the role of the local law enforcement officer in alcohol
enforcement, the statutory authority of the local law enforcement officer to enforce ABC law, and to enter an ABV licensed
establishment, common criminal and administrative code sections, preparing administrative charges against a licensed ABC
establishment, Fake ID detection, nuisance abatement strategies, 21st century policing and alcohol enforcement, community coalitions,
licensee training programs, underage buyer compliance operations.
Applied Evidence-Based Policing Practices: Homicide and Violent Crime Reduction (online): Although the past several decades
have seen a steady decrease in violent crime statistics, homicides and violent crimes continue to have a devastating impact on many of
our nation’s communities. With long-term social implications and staggering economic consequences, even minimal levels of violent
crime diminish the quality of life in affected communities. In response, homicide and violent crime reduction remains a top priority
for police agencies throughout the nation. The challenge is addressing violent crime with effective interventions and countermeasures.
Instead of guessing or speculating on which HVR strategies work best, many agencies are turning to evidence-based policing practices
(EBPP) to address the unique needs of the communities they serve.
Arrest, Search & Seizure (4th Amendment): Contact between the public and police can become confrontational and charged with
emotion. Officers are responsible for preventing and investigating civil rights violations. The Constitution and federal laws protect
individuals against violation of their civil rights by law enforcement officers. This course will educate officers how to perform their
duties in accordance to these laws.
Bloodborne Pathogens: This one-hour course provides training in accordance with Occupational Safety and Health Administration
(OSHA) Bloodborne Pathogen Standard 29 CFR 1910.1030 for law enforcement officers. This course assists officers in identifying
bodily fluids and viruses that pose risk, the portals of entry and what does and does not constitute an exposure. In addition, he/she will
become acquainted with exposure prevention methods and precautions to prevent transmission as well as post-exposure steps and
considerations.

Bomb Threats in Schools: This one-hour course will instruct law enforcement to effectively prevent and handle bomb threat
situations.
Communication Skills: Whether on the street or in the courtroom, having the skill to recognize non-verbal cues, conduct through
field interviews, or build rapport with criminal informants is a core competency for law enforcement professionals. This section
covers everything from analyzing a suspect’s body language to managing calls involving person with autism.
Community Policing Defined (online): This is an interactive online course designed to provide participants with a basic awareness
and understanding of the fundamental principles and best practices of community policing. Based on the Department of Justice,
COPS Office publication of the same name, Community Policing Defined not only describes the practices of community policing but
also examines how it can be effectively applied. Comprised of four modules, the course explores partnerships, problem solving and
organizational transformation as they relate to specific issues and challenges facing today’s law enforcement professionals and the
communities they serve. As such it is a valuable and appropriate training opportunity for a wide variety of law enforcement and
public-safety professionals, ranging from new hires to experienced personnel, as well as community leaders, business owners and
other community stakeholders. Utilizing a blended learning approach, Community Policing Defined prompts users to actively
navigate through the course’s comprehensive content which includes on-screen text, graphics and narration. This design feature
allows adult learners the flexibility to determine their own pace and sequence for completing the course.
Courthouse Security: This two-hour course will provide a step-by-step guide to achieving security for all parties in a courthouse.
Crimes Against Children and Human Trafficking: This half day course will provide attendees an overview of Child Abduction
Response, Child Prostitution and Pornography Investigations, the Collection and Processing of Digital Evidence and the FBI’s Online
Child Exploitation mission. This course will focus on the uses of technology by both offenders and law enforcement, with an
emphasis on search and seizure of digital evidence as well as basis IP addressing for investigators. The class will expose students to
roles and responsibilities of local, state, and federal law enforcement in investigating Crimes Against Children as well federal and
state statues, local trends and addressing the needs of child victims. This course will enable students to effectively make decisions
regarding department capabilities and will enhance their ability to recognize situations where children have been exploited.

Crisis Negotiations: The FBI, Richmond Division, will be providing this 40 hour course designed for police officers assigned to negotiate in crisis
situations, e.g. barricaded subjects, hostage situations, suicidal subjects, etc.
Applicants will be selected with the understanding that active participation in classroom and training scenarios is a primary
requirement. Attendees will be evaluated throughout the week, during the practical application of basic concepts and at the end of the
week with a written exam.
This course is being hosted by the Skyline Regional Criminal Justice Academy and arrangements are being made so that attendees will
receive DCJS credit.
TO REGISTER: Please apply by June 15th, 2018, by sending a completed application to FBI Richmond Crisis Negotiation
Coordinator Kathryn Weber at email address: [email protected]. Application is available by contacting Bruce Coor or Patti Baggarly
and was sent to all Training Officers.
De-Escalation and Minimizing Use of Force: Persons with mental illnesses, drug or alcohol addictions, or disorders such as autism
can present police officers with difficult challenges. In some cases, a person may brandish a weapon or otherwise appear to pose a
threat to the public, to the police, or to himself or herself. The threat may or may not be real one, and often it is difficult to assess the
level of danger. These situations become more complicated when, because of their conditions, persons cannot communicate
effectively with police officers. This course provides the necessary training in addressing the nature of the challenges and providing
promising solutions.
Ethical Decision Making: Policing with Principled Insight (online): EDM is a thought-provoking eLearn course that explores the
practice of decision making and the ethical principles that support effective policing. In one of its most impactful and rewarding
endeavors to date, VCPI partnered with the USDOJ, COPS Office to create the Ethical Decision Making: Policing with Principled
Insight program. As part of this larger initiative, EDM stresses that police ethics are not just and after-thought or a means of
discouraging bad behavior. Instead, ethics are a controlling insight that inform and guide police practitioners from an internal,
personal capacity. EDM invites participants to join a 2500-year-old conversation on ethical decision making while exploring realistic,
modern day challenges faced by policing professionals. Recognizing that for policing professionals, public trust, integrity, and
liability hinge on each and every decision, EDM is crafted as a concise and relevant course addressing the realities of policing in the
21st century. Designated with the practitioner in mind, EDM includes on-screen text, videos, and narration in a user-friendly eLearn
environment that allows participants to start, stop and resume the training based on their schedules.

Evolution of Modern Terrorism: The Evolution of Modern Terrorism is a two day, sixteen hour class. It explores the emergence of
Al Qaeda and ISIS and assesses the threat they, and similar groups, pose in the United States today. The class details the evolution of
tactics used by these groups, and provides indicators that can help law enforcement interdict events before they occur and respond to
those that do occur. The class is geared strictly towards first responders, both in active response to events and during patrol activities
that may bring them into contact with potential terrorists and their supporters.
Ground Fighting 101 for the Female Officer: The objective of this one week course is to develop competency in the most
fundamental and critical aspects of ground fighting in a law enforcement context. The course focuses on a limited number of
situations and techniques, and strategies for using those techniques that are commonly encountered, pose a serious threat to the officer,
and form the basis for the development of further competency. Topics include combat base, neutralizing and opponent’s personal
weapons, and escapes from common positions of disadvantage, such as headlocks and the mount. Techniques and strategies are
specifically selected to make best use of a female officer’s strengths. This course is, by its nature, physically demanding.
High Risk/Felony Car Stop Training Course (U.S. Deputy Sheriff’s Association): A foundational training course designed to get
agencies on the same page with their tactical considerations in dealing with these situations. The course develops a teamwork
approach to dealing with any high risk type stops including felony stops, car chase conclusions, and suicidal subjects. We emphasize
officers should never blindly run up to a vehicle which is essentially a barricaded subject(s) who have a mobile option. Tactical
considerations such as vehicle set up, officer responsibilities, suspect call out procedures and team vehicle approaches are addressed.
Instinctive Hand-to-Hand Combat Course: This course addresses the elements of hand to hand combat. Footwork, striking,
takedown and control holds, and ground combatives are covered. This course is MMA based but geared toward law enforcement
officers. Officer survival and self-preservation is stressed. Officers may use that amount of force necessary to affect an arrest;
however students are reminded they must follow their individual departmental policies. The training will develop confidence in
student’s individual skills as well as other class attendees. Students will get out of it what they put into it with their effort. Much of
the course teaches training drills to lay a foundation for future training. The course is completely hands on, however students work at
their own skill level. The basics are what are covered because they will never let you known. Skills are repeated and techniques
added to progress and develop individual abilities.

Internet Fraud and Financial Investigative Strategies: This half day course focuses on internet fraud and financial investigative
methods, as well as federal statutes used to prosecute perpetrators. The training will offer an introduction on the most prevalent
internet frauds investigated by the FBI, and give an overview of the investigative process from the initiation of a fraud complaint
through prosecution. The course provides attendees with a general knowledge of internet fraud, financial crimes, overview of
investigative tools for law enforcement and an understanding of when cases should be referred for federal investigation.
Judicial Security Specialist (online): Nationally, threats against judicial personnel have quadrupled in the last decade. The judges
themselves are not the only ones in danger. Judges’ families are also being targeted as a direct threatening tactic and more attacks are
occurring in the judges’ homes. Creating awareness and providing resources is critical to securing the judiciary and their families. In
response, VCPI’s Judicial Security Specialist Online (JSSO) program prepares participants to enhance the safety of judicial officials,
their families, and other judicial staff. Throughout the interactive program, participants explore the foundations, current practices,
challenges, and opportunities, as well as how to adopt a security-conscientious approach at work, travel, and home. JSSO is crafted as
a concise and relevant eLearn course addressing the critical issues related to judicial security. Designed with the practitioner in mind,
the course includes on-screen text, downloadable resources, exercises, videos, and narration in a user-friendly eLearn environment that
allows participants to start, stop and resume the training based on their schedules. Participants should expect to spend approximately
6-8 hours completing this dynamic and timely course.
LawFit Fitness Leadership Workshop: LawFit Training is a hands-on, experiential approach that motivates fitness leaders in the
LawFit Program to lead by example and reinforces the fact that any successful fitness program must have the active support of senior
management. The three-day workshop consists of 10 two-part Sessions (Activity and Instructional). Each activity component allows
officers to apply, in a practical manner, the concepts they are learning. Course prerequisites: Participant is fit for full duty as a law
enforcement officer and is physically able to participate in the LawFit Fitness Leadership Workshop activities. The workshop’s
physical activities include, but are not limited to (one repetition maximum bench press), 60 second sit-up test, sit & reach flexibility
test, maximum repetition pull-up test, Lat pull-down test, 1.5 mile run, and 154 yard suspect pursuit. This training may have the
potential to put significant stress on the cardiovascular and musculoskeletal systems of participants. You must attend the entire three-
day course to receive Fitness Leader Certification.

Leadership: Having a solid foundation of leadership is essential to agency morale and efficiency. Discussions here highlight tips for
being a good mentor, developing leaders, succession planning and more.
Leadership Fundamentals and the Social Psychology of Trust for Leaders: This one day course is focused on leadership soft
skills and the psychology and practical application for developing trust with your team, subordinates, leaders, and peers. The day is
filled with self-awareness tools and experiential experiences with the objective of highlighting the natural strengths each attendee
possesses and creating an understanding of areas we may wish to enhance and improve upon.
LinX: This course is required for access to the LinX system and is designed for any user who is new to LinX. The lecture portion
covers what LinX is, uses for law enforcement, and the policy and rules of use. The remainder of the course is “hands on” in which
all students log into the system and run sample searches. All students will learn how to set up/change preferences, search
neighborhoods, and use best practices and investigative/analytical features of the most common structured and unstructured searches.
Instruction will also cover access and usage of LinX’s partner data sharing system, the FBI’s National Data Exchange (NDEx).
Manipulating the System: How Inmates Do Time: Jail correctional officers and deputies work inside facilities where operations
are governed by policies and procedures. These translate into systems such as security systems, communications systems and inmate
service systems. All are designed to keep inmates safely confined, the staff, inmates and public safe, and to ensure that inmates
receive necessary services and programs. Much time and effort are devoted to staff training and supervision to make sure that these
systems work efficiently. Inmates will attempt to circumvent these systems and create cracks in the security network. While jail
officers may think that all is well and operations are running smoothly, inmates because of the way they do time and for their own
advantage manipulate jail staff. Staff has access to the outside world and that is what inmates want to exploit. This in service training
course will explore ways that staff can combat this manipulation, using real case studies, examples and advice from veterans and
practitioners in jails. Jail staff will understand how inmates do time and how they manipulate.
New Perspectives on Community Policing (online): For over three decades, the principles of community policing have been a
driving force in American law enforcement. Yet for all of its past success, community policing may never have been as vital to law
enforcement and the well-being of our communities as it is today. New Perspectives on Community Policing is a free, web-based
training course that examines how change, emerging issues and threats are necessitating a reinvigorated commitment to the key
components of community policing: community partnerships, organizational transformation, and problem solving. The course
introduces this new perspective on community policing and offers and overview of the dramatic shifts and challenges that are faced by

law enforcement agencies and the communities they serve. New Perspectives on Community Policing also offers problem-solving
tools, examples of successful police and community partnerships, and numerous community-policing resources.
New Perspectives on Community Policing is the product of a joint partnership between the Virginia Center for Policing Innovation
(VCPI), the Western Community Policing Institute (WCPI), and the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Community Oriented
Policing Services (COPS). New Perspectives on Community Policing has been developed as a modular online training that will
require an absolute minimum of 4 hours to complete. However its technology-enhanced design allows participants to start, stop, and
resume the training based on their schedules and the demands of the day.
Preventing and Addressing Bullying in Schools: This one hour course will inform and share proven ways local SROs and other law
enforcement officials can address and respond to bullying. Although they are not on-site to carry out disciplinary functions that fall
under the purview of school personnel, SROs can play an important role as law enforcers, educators and informal counselors.
Raising the Bar in Public Safety Supervision: This course addresses the needs of Public Safety supervisors in a variety of
situations. From routine administrative matters to responding to critical incidents and scene management, the class presents an overall
strategy for creating an environment designed to maximize supervisory skills, employee development, and agency effectiveness. Who
should attend – First line supervisors, middle level management, and those aspiring to be supervisors in all law enforcement related
fields, including police, sheriff’s, corrections and dispatch.

Citizen and Homegrown Violent Extremism ideology. Sovereign Citizen Extremism discusses the origin (Redemption Theory),
theories, tactics and groups. It will also include Sovereign Citizen case studies. Homegrown Violent Extremism discusses threats,
trends and the radicalization process. It will also include Homegrown Violent Extremism case studies. At the completion of the
course, students will have a basic understanding of Sovereign Citizen and Homegrown Violent Extremism ideology, be able to

Use of Force: According to the National Institute of Justice, the use of force by law enforcement officers becomes necessary and is
permitted under specific circumstances in self-defense or in defense of another individual or group. Police officers receive guidance
from their individual agencies, but there is no universal set of rules that governs when officers use force and how much they should
use. This two-hour online course provides training and focuses on the legal aspects for an officer to use force when affecting an
arrest, investigatory stop, or other seizure of a free citizen.
Violence Interdiction: A Proactive Approach to Mitigating Conflict (online): This course is an innovative online course that
equips law enforcement with the practical skills and knowledge necessary to tackle escalating violence through a proactive and tough
interdiction approach. Based on crime prevention principles, Violence Interdiction shatters the notion that law enforcement is limited
to responding to conflict only after it has escalated to violence. Instead, this web-based course highlights the opportunities that law
enforcement and criminal justice professionals have to intervene prior to escalation. The course explores a variety of strategies that
help mitigate conflict and examines the steps to identify, assess, and manage threats in ways that may prevent violence from occurring
at all. Concepts covered in this course are applicable for all criminal justice disciplines, including law enforcement patrol, crime
prevention specialists, corrections, probation and parole, courts and more. This is an online, self-paced course of instruction that will
allow you the flexibility of starting, stopping and resuming the training based on your schedule. It is anticipated that successfully
completing this course will take 8 hours.
