New Public Safety Training Series Now Available

The California JPIA has launched two comprehensive training programs designed to enhance the skills and knowledge that are crucial to managing the public safety workplace: the Law Enforcement Supervisory Essentials Series and the Fire Service Supervisory Essentials Series. These training series are designed specifically for police and fire chiefs, police and fire management, and human resources professionals.

Both training programs consist of a comprehensive three-part series that is designed to guide human resources professionals and police or fire management through the Public Safety Officers Procedural Bill of Rights Act (POBR) or the Firefighters Procedural Bill of Rights Act (FBOR), respectively. The series guides participants through the complexities, legal aspects, and practical skills necessary to conduct or oversee effective workplace investigations of allegations of public safety employee misconduct and how to arrive at a legally defensible finding. The training programs will also cover best practices for effective workplace documentation, including police or fire department employee performance evaluations and discipline, using hypothetical scenarios. Attendees should be prepared for discussion during these highly interactive training programs.

Both series are now available for in-person scheduling, and members are encouraged to take advantage of this valuable training. The training series will be provided in person for the department’s command staff and the agency’s human resources professionals.

If you are interested in scheduling this training for your agency, please contact your agency’s training registrar. For any questions or further details, please contact the Authority’s training department.
