BREAK OUT SESSIONS

BREAK OUT SESSIONS SPONSORS This class focuses on the core question: what does Different Look Like for Texas? Welcome to the conversation; we have work to do! TCOLE Presents: TCLEDDS for Academies: Do’s and Don’ts – Richard Gutierrez and Lisa Landry This presentation covers the fundamentals of form submission via TCLEDDS. It is not a comprehensive step-by-step tutorial or “user manual” type of instruction, but rather an overview of the most common submission errors made by agency staff and the preventive measures to avoid them. The program topics include how to do a PID number search and a PID application, how to search and submit training rosters, how to submit and search for L-1s and L-1Ts, understanding F-5 form submission prerequisites, and the F-5R form updates. Resilience – Texas Department of Public Safety, Fitness Wellness Unit This course examines basic resiliency principles along with strategies and techniques to improve the officer’s response to stressors. This course will discuss topics such as the fixed mindset versus the growth mindset, the Texas Department of Public Safety Resiliency Domains and Tenets, and tactical breathing to regulate the physiological symptoms associated with the stress response. In this class learn the positive impact resilience training can have on an officer while at work as well as off duty. Evaluating Reality-Based Training – Lieutenant James Molloy, Austin Community College Often, when conducting reality-based training, instructors rely on simple check list style performance evaluations. This is an effective tool to record observations, but in most cases does not actively involve the student in the process. By engaging students in a Socratic evaluation of the exercise instructors will actively engage the student in the evaluation process, enhancing critical thinking, recall, and articulation skills. Incorporating the “objective reasonableness” Graham v. Connor standard into every exercise will further cause students to evaluate situations based on the Constitutional use of force. In truth, nearly every contact with the public requires law enforcement to continually evaluate their legal basis for force, if any, and what the articulable facts are surrounding those decisions. Using guided questioning and requiring students to state facts rather than conclusions will enhance the ability to make better decisions in the future along with providing a basis for writing clear reports. This class will cover the use of student-centered feedback, common feedback errors, the benefits of student-centered feedback, and the incorporation of Constitutional use of force into the evaluation process. PTSD and Modern Brain Science – Lieutenant Paul Christ, Texas Municipal League Intergovernmental Risk Pool and Rick Randall, Senior Chaplain, The Randall Group This course educates police officers and leaders to the issue of trauma and how it impacts the brain, often resulting in injury to the brain and symptoms of depression, anxiety, and impulsive behavior. The goal is to address potential risks to officers to prevent them from becoming issues for the individual, their family, and the department. Using the CISM model, the value of early intervention strategies is described and recommended as effective prevention. TCOLE Presents: Background Investigations and Secure Share Do you conduct background investigations for your agency’s applicant pool? Are you responsible for the final hiring decision at your agency? Come to our class where we will discuss Senate Bill 24 as it relates to background investigations, the Background Confirmation Form, and TCOLE Secure Share. Think you already know all there is to know about these topics? Think again! Not only will we discuss these topics as they stand now, but we will also cover the vision of where these projects are headed. 86 The BLUES The BLUES 87
