Animal control and law enforcement professionals provide a service to society by protecting citizens from animal crimes and bringing animal abusers to justice. Regardless of where you fall on the law enforcement spectrum , animal control officers, animal cruelty investigators, code enforcement, humane law enforcement, police officers, probation officers, prosecutors or sheriff's deputies, advancing your career depends on taking advantage of continuing education opportunities available to you.
We continue to offer the best training for animal control, law enforcement and the public safety community as well as other disciplines.
Due to the number and variety of courses being offered it would be too numerous to detail all that is available. Please take some time to peruse the entire catalog to find classes of interest to you and your department. Many of our normal classes continue to be offered as well as many new and timely topics that had been added.
In presenting this training, we have attempted to address current issues and trends occurring in the law enforcement and public safety community involving animals. As always, we welcome your input into any other courses that could be offered to increase the safety and efficiency of those who serve the community. We are confident that the training offered will fulfill your department’s training needs.
A sincere thank you is extended to all of the nationwide police chiefs, animal control officers, animal cruelty investigators, code enforcement officers, humane law enforcement officers, police officers, probation officers, prosecutors, sheriff deputies and all other public safety officials for their continued support and cooperation.
