Valuable information for anyone wanting to become or just became a supervisor. May want more hands on for some topics like I.C. as it's pretty dull

This class was outstanding. I really got a lot out of it that I could bring back to my police department. It is practical material where we have an open discussion and actually learn pertinent information. Jim, Phil, and Rebecca are very knowledgable and kept me invested for the entire week. Every soon to be or newly appointed sergeant should take this course. This class will make us better supervisors.
