At Practical Police Training, we understand the training challenges law enforcement agencies face. That’s why we developed self-paced online training programs designed to complement your agency’s existing field training and annual in-service programs. Each course reinforces the essential knowledge and skills officers need to perform their duties safely, confidently, and effectively.

For new officers, our Patrol Basics Course is specifically designed to focus on the areas where new officers struggle the most during field training. It focuses heavily on patrol tactics, traffic stop tactics, officer safety issues, responding to in-progress crimes, crime scene management, common constitutional issues for patrol officers, report writing, and a variety of other important patrol-related skills. This course bridges the gap between the academy and the street, helping new officers apply what they’ve learned.

For experienced officers, our Patrol Basics – Annual Refresher Course provides a practical and efficient method for maintaining proficiency in essential patrol skills, ensuring that your officers are well-prepared, legally informed, and aligned with the highest standards of professional policing. Our goal is to make ongoing training simple, consistent, and effective, helping agencies keep their personnel sharp without disrupting daily operations.

Our online, self-paced format makes it easy to integrate our programs into your department’s schedule while minimizing staffing disruptions. Each course is built around the real-world challenges patrol officers face, keeping the material practical, consistent, and immediately applicable. With Practical Police Training, agencies can provide their personnel with another resource to build knowledge and competency, promote officer safety, and ensure the consistent delivery of high-quality police services within the community.
