Building Blocks of a Law Enforcement Volunteer Program
Law enforcement volunteer programs vary by agency but the principles in their foundation are universal. This introductory course teaches attendees how to implement a volunteer program within a law enforcement agency. Participants will come away with a greater understanding of the importance of program infrastructure, recruitment, selection and management, training, recognition, and assessment. These building blocks will resonate with agencies just starting out with volunteers.
