Today, law enforcement training—all aspects of training— is falling under scrutiny by activists and legislators who want to ensure LEOs are getting the best training possible to improve their on-the-street performance. Outsiders are now looking at how often officers train and under what circumstances.

On top of everything else, there’s more technology available now than ever before for law enforcement, requiring officers to be retrained in multiple areas.
