Brief Description: Register directly with Calibre Press. Class Times 8:30 am to 4:30 pm

Full Description: Are today’s younger Officers proficient at the most basic and necessary skills needed for success in Law Enforcement?  Namely, effectively interacting with other human beings?  Very often, the answer is a resounding, “No!”

Why? Well, several reasons,

- 75% of children by age 12 have smart phones. Therefore, in constant communication with everyone in their lives, 24/7, requiring less independent thought, planning, and problem-solving skills to develop.
- Communication is accomplished via text or social media posts.
- Playtime throughout adolescence is highly structured.
- Autonomous play and independent peer interaction is delayed and limited, compared to previous generations.
- Parents and other adults overly involved in all aspects of children’s lives (“Helicopter” and “Bull dozer” parenting styles).
- Conflict is resolved through social media or with parental assistance and scrutiny.
- Children are discouraged from displaying aggressive behavior.
- Electronic devices limit unstructured free time that allows for creative thought.

"Teaching Rookie Cops How to Talk to People" is a course that intends to remedy the communication shortcomings that resulted from the above realities.  During this dynamic and entertaining seminar, participants will learn, discuss, and demonstrate an understanding of basic communication truths.
