This is my second time attending J. Harris Training. Again, this course did not disappoint and it was more informative than the Supervision Course that is offered at our county police academy. J. Harris goes a lot more in depth on what a Supervisor should know on his or her shift. What decisions to make, how to communicate with your officers, know your police, etc. I would recommend this to anyone who is soon becoming a supervisor.

The course was very informative and taught by obviously competent and knowledgeable instructors. All of my expectations were covered in the curriculum and additional topics were covered as certain issues and discussions arose during class. I will certainly be recommending this class to others and looking to attend additional classes put on by J.Harris Academy of Police Training.
