Being an SRO is much more than just re-locating a police officer from a patrol position to inside a school building. In order to be SUCCESSFUL, School Resource Officers will have to make changes in their policing mentality, understand the value of available resources and requires specific knowledge of the critical rules and laws that govern school policing. Areas like Miranda, search and seizure, free speech and expression are considerably different in public schools than anywhere else. Working with special populations (autistic and special needs) students, parent interaction, class presentation and many more subjects are covered. This 2-day course will provide officers the skills and knowledge necessary to work as a competent SRO in the school environment. The officer will be guided through a step-by-step introduction to the school policing world with specific actions to take when they take on that assignment.

This training was great. It was presented in a way that makes the information extremely understandable. It also made me rethink the way some things are and have been done at my agency in the past. I'm looking forward to taking this information back to my patrol shift to better prepare them to do their jobs in the future.

I loved the way the material was presented in a way that was easy of the "lay-cop" to understand. It was also presented in a way that was easy to remember and apply on scene, in the moment. I consider myself fairly squared away on search and seizure and still considered this class very worth while. So, thank you.
