About This Course

Designing court defensible, evidence-informed training is the cornerstone of enhancing student performance and safety, while also protecting agencies from accusations of “failure to train.” Much of law enforcement training focuses on the quality of the instructor, but even the best instructors must have solid content to deliver to ensure peak performance by their staff. Designing Exceptional Training Programs is designed to provide instructors, course developers, and supervisors with a simple toolbox to design training (in any topic) in accordance with a validated Instructional System Design (ISD) process.
