This 8 hour course will provide the experienced trainer with the latest information on 

Autism, Autism Spectrum Disorders, or Asperger's Syndrome. Any officer is welcome. 

Persons with this developmental disability, especially young men, pose a particular 

challenge to their caretakers and first responders. This developmental disability can present 

itself in dramatic and sometimes violent reactions for those who have never experienced the 

social and communication challenges that each person with Autism can present. 

This class, taught by team of instructors from Giant Steps, serves as an ongoing support to 

law enforcement agencies in providing knowledge on the needs of persons with Autism and 

their families. 

This unique course will be taught both onsite and offsite. Each trainer will be given a 

resource book to use for future training. 

Lead instructor for this class will be Susan Hamre, Educational Coordinator, Giant Steps. 

Funding for this course and course materials is provided by Giant Steps for all law 

enforcement attending. 

This two day comprehensive program has been expanded from the original one day format. 

Basic protective theories and concepts are appropriate for both management and line 

officers. 

This seminar is suitable for departments that interface with outside agency providers, such as 

the Secret Service, or for those that provide internal protective functions, such as mayoral or

This one day course will cover the basics of obtaining and analyzing telephone and internet 

records in support of criminal investigations. This course will apply to investigators, 

investigative supervisors, criminal analysts, prosecutors and support personnel. 

Those attending will learn how this information has been used to further an investigation.

Advanced topics and techniques will be also be discussed. 

This class will be taught by Investigator Dennis Carroll, Wisconsin Attorney General's 

Office, formerly Kane County Sheriff's Police. 

Officers of all ranks experience stress on the job. Issues regarding shift work, balancing 

family needs, financial decisions, and operating in the rule bound, yet highly discretionary, 

world of policing require officers to develop a skill set that few academies prepare them to 

use, let alone know about. 

An experienced law enforcement manager and educator will provide students with a number 

of ways to better cope with both the "normal" challenges of the job and the acute occurrences 

which can produce high levels of stress. 

Personal leadership approaches are emphasized throughout this one day course and officers 

will have a chance to consider better ways to make decisions, including the following: 

Compassion fatigue 

How the dynamics of control and trust can change attitudes 

Recognizing why officers have special communication needs 

Overcoming the damaging effects of "rule bound" and stoic 

approaches to the job 

Recognizing symptoms of stress and how they differ from other 

jobs 

Developing an action plan based on a personal vision beyond 

the job 

Overcoming the "peaks and valleys" of unhealthy career 

investment 

What goes wrong: Alcohol, divorce, isolation, suicide and 

depression 

This class will be taught by: Chief Kent Williams, Bartlett Police Department.

This innovative one day end user course formerly known as "New Techniques for Effective 

Tactical Police Baton" provides a "stand on its own" baton system and promises to provide 

effective techniques that can be easily learned and put into practice right away. Not only are 

these techniques fast, they are low profile and effective. 

The use of the police baton continues to be a mainstay of officer survival, crowd control, and 

officer defense and control. Unfortunately, many officers are not able to engage in 

confrontations with effective quick strikes and blocks currently taught in other systems. 

This course introduces techniques for overcoming long slow moves and is effectively suited 

to responding to multiple offender attacks. These innovations will be presented utilizing the 

simple and effective Modern Warrior System. 

Modern Warrior instructors are available for offering expert testimony if needed by the 

department and provide an additional certificate upon completion of this course. 


- Use of Force guidelines 

- Kinetic principles and interruption of assault techniques 

- Multiple assailant defenses 

- Blocking, striking and trapping techniques 

- Weak and strong hand use 

- Takedowns and what to do when knocked to the ground 

- Weapon Retention techniques 

This course will be taught by retired Sgt. Bernie Hogancamp (Retired); and Sgt. Craig Sline, 

both of the Homewood Police Department.

For a variety of reasons, listening and memory are very much misunderstood as learnable 

skills. To see, to hear, and to remember seems like a simple formula, but really it is much 

more complex. This 8 hour course will assist officers recall information, and improve their 

memory and listening skills. 

Systems introduced and practiced will first use mnemonics for object recall, and eventually 

involve family and police related subject areas, such as names, license plates, and variable 

numbers. General orders, elements of offenses and offenses will be included. 

For anyone who as ever wanted to improve both their long term and short term memory, or 

wants to be a better listener, research demonstrates that it is never too late to acquire some 

new habits with systems that make it much easier. 

Officers will be introduced to the following systems in a self taught, fun, interactive 

environment by two experienced communications facilitators: 

- Association systems 

- Tab systems 

- Linking systems 

- Chunking systems 

- Loci technique 

Instructors are Jim Zalud, Communications consultant and Chief Pat Solar (ret.), Genoa P.D. 

They currently are teaching a companion communication skills course known as "Cues & 

Clues for Improving Communication". 

Mental Health First Aid is designed to help officers understand someone who is developing 

a mental health problem or who is experiencing a mental health crisis. Just as CPR training 

helps a person without medical training assist an individual having a heart attack, Mental 

Health First Aid training helps an officer assist someone experiencing a mental health crisis. 

The National Council for Community Behavioral Healthcare’s is course is being taught 

throughout the U.S. as a primary help model for professionals and the general public to 

better understand and assist others with mental health issues. It will raise the bar for all first 

responders to follow. 

Studies have found that those who trained in Mental Health First Aid have greater 

confidence in providing help to others.

This course will be taught by: Sergeant Thomas Dworak, Wilmette Police Department. 

This certified program is designed to provide instruction to law enforcement personnel who 

will be involved in firearms training activities for their departments. This program 

concentrates on instructional techniques and is designed to develop students as prospective 

instructors rather than improving their individual shooting abilities. Administrative aspects 

of defensible firearms programs are also stressed in this course. Students will be taught how 

to maintain necessary records, safely manage firearms exercises, and develop realistic 

exercises to ensure their agencies have comprehensive firearms programs. 

The following items should be brought to this course: 

- Eye and ear protection 

- Handgun and holster 

- Cleaning kit 

- 300 rounds of ammunition (factory or reload) 

- Shotgun 

- Note taking materials 

Shotgun ammunition will be provided by NEMRT. Law enforcement agencies must 

carefully select individuals who are to be utilized as firearms instructors. Only personnel 

who are willing to exercise patience, good judgment, safety consciousness, instructional 

acumen, and a willingness to document and record the activities of individual 

shooters/students should be considered for the position of firearms instructor. Anything less 

minimizes the importance of the role of this individual in the overall training program of the 

agency.

with experts from the fields of juvenile law, social work, and law enforcement, to provide 

newly assigned or promoted juvenile officers with the skills, knowledge, and behaviors 

needed for success in the position. 

Juvenile officers have a unique role, not only in enforcing laws but also in responding to 

family problems in a compassionate and effective manner. Their position requires them to 

act as protectors of youths and society as a whole by investigating criminal acts for findings 

of "delinquency and in supporting youths in growing out of adolescence" without 

experiencing the stigma of police involvement. 

Officers who take this web based course and pass the examination given at the end of the 

mandatory review session will be Illinois state certified Juvenile Officers just as if they had 

attended a traditional classroom training course. 

You may register your officer for an examination date and time as you would for any 

NEMRT course. Registrations can be submitted via fax or made on line at www.nemrt.com.

42 

Have you ever recruited, interviewed, and hired/promoted a person only to wonder six 

months later what happened to that motivated individual and why you are stuck with a 

person who does just enough to not get fired? In these cases, a critical step the alignment of 

expectations has been missed in the "on boarding" process that occurs with the individual 

hire/promotee. When this misalignment occurs, whether it is actual or perceived, frustration 

quickly develops and performance declines. 

So that these mind-sets may be avoided, it is essential that employees at every level have an 

understanding of what is expected of them from both internal and external stakeholders. 

These employees must have clear comprehension of what their new roles are and how they 

will be evaluated. 

This two day program will provide participants with strategies and tools for better 

integrating the expectations of organizations and the employees that work in them. 


- Defining effective supervision 

- Creating strategies for integrating organizational expectations into shift/department 

operations 

- Developing strategies for communicating expectations, both internally and externally 

- Identifying and assessing causal factors when misalignment occurs 

This course will be taught by: Instructors with the Suburban Law Enforcement Academy. 



Street gangs plague many communities throughout the United States. Many police 

departments do not have the resources necessary to fund specialized units to address gang 

crimes, thus they have come to rely upon patrol supervisors and officers to handle these 

issues. 

This course has been developed to provide patrol supervisors and officers with strategies for 

controlling gang activity and reducing gang-related crime within their respective 

communities. 

Topics to be covered include the following: 

- Conducting gang assessments 

- Collecting intelligence on street gangs 

- Developing directed patrols in targeted areas 

- Coordinating with school resource officers 

- Conducting "Knock and Talks" 

- Fostering interagency cooperation and collaboration 

- Civil Gang Injunctions and enhanced penalty laws 

This course will be taught by: Investigator Bruce Malkin, DuPage County State's Attorney.

jobs 

Developing an action plan based on a personal vision beyond 

the job 

Overcoming the "peaks and valleys" of unhealthy career 

investment

8:00 AM to 4:00 PM 




62 

Community Service Officers are vital to the good order and operations of law enforcement 

agencies. In an era of decreased law enforcement budgets, CSO's have come to compliment 

police operations to the extent that law enforcement agencies are better able to allocate 

sworn policing services. This 3 day, 24 hour program will provide students with basic 

foundational skills that comprise this important role, including: 

- Powers/Authority of Community Service Officers & their role in relation to patrol and 

investigative operations 

- Department policy review of CSO duties and responsibilities 

- Traffic control 

- Fingerprinting 

- Ordinance violations 

- Report writing 

- Courtroom testimony 

- Patrol observations 

- Conducting investigations, including ordinance violations, parking complaints, animal 

complaints, etc. 

- Operation of police vehicles 

- Animal complaints 

- Community oriented policing 

- Ethics 

- Missions and values of police organizations 

- Rules and regulations 

- Crossing guard duties 




This 8 hour program was developed for civilian and sworn employees and will introduce 

them to conflict resolution strategies that will aid in understanding and managing such 

situations. Conflict is a reality in almost every segment of the law enforcement environment. 

Unfortunately, many of these conflicts can have negative consequences if left unresolved or 

handled inappropriately. 

Participants in this program will be provided with resolution strategies that will assist them 

in managing disputes and tension within their departments and in improving their customer 

service skills. Application of conflict resolution strategies can improve overall job 

performance and long term employee job satisfaction, reduce interpersonal conflict, and 

improve employee relations with the public. 

Students attending this class will: 

- Develop a working definition of conflict resolution 

- Gain an understanding that conflict is a daily reality and an inherent part of police 

management. Conflict in the workplace cannot be avoided 

- Gain an understanding of the different types of conflict and how conflict can be used in a 

positive manner 

- Discuss conflict management alternatives 

- Discuss, implement, and understand the dialogue model of conflict management 

- Identify what types of actions cause resistance 

- Recognize the importance of perspective and assumption 

- Identify types of language that cause resistance.

This two day course will provide students with an insightful perspective of and techniques 

for conducting performance appraisals that enhance and promote maximum performance in 

the workplace. 

Prior to class, students will complete an on line DISC assessment that will outline their 

personal behavioral styles. The results of this survey will be interpreted in class through an 

examination of the predominate traits of each style and the most effective methods for 

interacting with each "type" of person. This insightful framework serves as the basis for the 

remainder of the class which will provide attendees with goal setting, coaching, and behavior 

modification techniques that spotlight employee potential and improve communication and 

productivity. 

PLEASE NOTE: Reichart Consulting Group will contact each student at least two weeks 

prior to class with instructions for completing his or her DISC assessment. Any student not 

completing this assignment will not be allowed to begin class. 

This course will be taught by: Captain Richard Reichart, Lansing Police Department 

(Retired). 

This 8 hour seminar will emphasize rational approaches that can be employed when 

communicating with the public. Though ideal for community service officers, desk 

personnel, and telecommunicators, this course will benefit any person in the department who 

has frequent contact with the public. Phone etiquette, one on one listening tactics, and 

language usage will be examined through class discussion and practiced in role playing 

scenarios. 

Additional discussion will focus on: 

- Appropriate use of voice, gestures, and eye contact 

- Public perceptions, police priorities, and consequences 

- How to make an apology for errors or delays 

- Personal appearance, hygiene, and image 

- Role of training and preparation

This course will address growth in the elderly population, senior citizens' concerns about and 

perceptions of crime, and common financial crimes that are committed against this 

demographic group. Participants will discuss why these crimes are often unreported to police 

and families, how the trauma of crime affects victims, and overcoming unique problems to 

successfully prosecute offenders. 


- Bank fraud 

- Common confidence games 

- Home repair frauds 

- Fortune telling scams 

- Faith healing and medical quackery frauds 

- Gypsy and traveler scams committed against the elderly 

This course is ideal for those departments that are involved in the Illinois Sheriff's and 

Chief's Triad Program or those that have aging populations who are fearful of crime. 

This course will be taught by: Officer Bruce Walstad, Franklin Park Police Department 

(Retired). 

On July 1, 2011, PA 96 155 went into effect. The Act contains numerous substantive 

changes, repeals of many existing statutes, consolidation of statutes, renumbering of statutes, 

as well as changes that are only cosmetic. 

This class will identify and closely examine changes brought about by the Act. Each student 

will receive a completely revised and up to the minute Illinois Criminal Code handout 

featuring all significant changes, together with a conversion table made available courtesy of 

the Illinois Office of the State's Attorney Appellate Prosecutor to assist in determining the 

appropriate section under which to bring charges under the revised code. 

A small sampling of significant changes and issues raised by the revisions include: 

720 ILCS 5/11 9.4. "Approaching, contacting, residing, or communicating with a child within certain 

places by child sex offenders prohibited," has been repealed and its provisions combined with 720 

ILCS 5/11 9.3. "presence within school zone by child sex offender prohibited," which resulted in the 

creation of a new statute entitled, 720 ILCS 5/11 9.3. "Presence within school zone by child sex 

offenders prohibited; approaching, contacting, residing with, or communicating with a child within 

certain places by child sex offenders prohibited." 

720 ILCS 5/12 2. "Aggravated assault" has been reordered to categorize the various circumstance 

which will make an assault aggravated 

A number of "Battery" related statues have been repealed and their contents integrated into the 

offense of "Aggravated battery" which has been renumbered from 720 ILCS 5/12 4 to ILCS 5/12 

5.05. "Aggravated battery." 

Like "Aggravated battery," above, "Criminal Sexual Assault" and "Aggravated Criminal Sexual 

Assault" have been renumbered. "Criminal Sexual Assault" was 720 ILCS 5/12 13, but is now 720 

ILCS 5/11 1.20. "Aggravated Criminal Sexual Assault" was 720 ILCS 5/12 14, but is now 720 ILCS 

5/11 1.30. These two statues also contain substantive changes. 

A new offense which became effective on January 1, 2011, 720 ILCS 5/11 9.4 1. "Sexual predator and 

child sex offender; presence or loitering in or near public parks prohibited," may be 

unenforceable inasmuch as the critical definitions of "child sex offender" in 5/11 9.4. and 

"sexual predator" in the Sex Offender Registration Act are derived from statutes that have 

been wholly or partially repealed. Consult your state's attorney before charging under that 

section where the basis of the charge depends upon the suspect being a "child sex offender." 

Again, these are only a sample of the many changes that took place on July 1, 2011, to be 

covered in this program.

Criminal Related Interviewing Made Easy is an 8 hour course designed to prepare 

investigators and patrol officers to be more effective interviewers on scene.Though 

developed with patrol officers in mind, this training will assist any officer in gaining critical 

information and to act on that information quickly and effectively. 


- Organizing intelligence 

- Time considerations 

- Suspect background 

- Immediate rapport building 

- Choosing the Right Interview Technique 

- Observations and verbal indicators 

- Legal Considerations 

Instructor for this class will be Domenic Cappelluti, Waukegan Police Department. 

If Terrorism Task Force funding becomes available, tuitions will be waived. 

**Cancellations for this class must be received 35 days in advance of the start date to avoid 

being billed.** 

Good officers recognize non verbal "tells" given off during encounters and are able to 

consistently gain advantage by using this street sense. While safety protocols must always be 

followed during street encounters, many other officers are oftentimes unaware of how the 

language and gestures they use can shut down communication with those they encounter. 

This program will provide officers, particularly those involved in community based policing 

initiatives, with methods for improving their street interviewing skills and establishing 

trustworthy rapport and dialogue with those they meet and serve. Additionally, students will 

examine communication cues that can be indicative of potential threats, deceitful statements, 

or suspicious explanations. 

This course will be taught by: Chief Patrick Solar, Sycamore Police Department (Retired); 

and Mr. James Zalud, Communication Consultant.

County Major Case Task Force. 



Instructors participating in this course (formerly entitled Essentials of Teaching Adults) will 

discover how communication and student learning styles must be recognized and 

incorporated into their roles as educators and leaders, regardless of their levels of experience 

or subject matter. Challenges are presented to these leaders in managing learning across 

generations of officers who bring many of the same, but some very different, traits to the 

classroom, thus resulting in complex dynamics in the training environment. Managing 

conflict and maintaining focus in the classroom are essential, particularly when introducing 

new concepts and change. Trainers will also leave the course with a better idea of how to 

structure presentations, manage the classroom environment, and incorporate adult learning 

principles in their instructional materials and techniques.

limited to, definitions, registration, driver's licenses, rules of the road, criminal and 

administrative DUI actions, towing statutes, vehicle equipment requirements, and bail bond 

rules. Participants should bring a current copy of the Illinois Vehicle Code to class and are 

encouraged to identify any questions they may have regarding the IVC. 

This course will be taught by: Lieutenant Ed Kirkpatrick, Illinois Secretary of State Police. 

The Federal Bureau of Investigation's Computer Analysis Response Team (CART) 

developed the Imagescan system to help investigators locate the presence of picture files that 

may contain contraband on a computer. This system allows the investigator to view a variety 

of graphic formats during a consensual search and protects valuable digital evidence by 

booting up a computer using the Linux operating system. After mounting the hard drive in a 

"read only" manner, Imagescan prompts the investigator to search for picture files only. 

During this process, the tool logs every step taken by the investigator, thus providing further 

documentation of what occurred during the search process. 

CART successfully completed field testing of Imagescan in May of 2004, and is making this 

tool available to all law enforcement personnel upon request. 

Any law enforcement personnel who conduct on site investigations for child pornography or 

any other types of investigations involving graphic image files are encouraged to attend this 

Imagescan class. 

This course will be taught by: Instructors with the Regional Computer Forensics Laboratory.

According to the U.S. National Center for Computer Crime, fraud now makes up 44% of all 

computer crime. Computer technology has continued to advance in complexity and schemes 

to breach the security of electronically stored information have increased in frequency. This 

16 hour, two day class will educate law enforcement officers, regardless of prior computer 

knowledge, about various frauds and scams involving the Internet and computers. 

Through the use of multi media presentations and real time online examples, students will 

examine the following topics: 

- Identity theft laws 

- Traditional vs. computer techniques associated with identity theft 

- How to obtain credit card information on and off line 

- Methods used by password thieves and keyloggers to obtain personal information 

- How to generate and identify false information 

- Basic e-mail scams 

- How to implement a Fraud Prevention program within a law enforcement agency or 

provide roll call training to other officers 




Public service is a public trust and the citizens of our communities expect our public officials 

to act in accordance with the law. This trust is endangered when misconduct occurs or 

appears to have occurred. Conducting public corruption investigations requires an approach 

that clearly demonstrates impartiality while being time sensitive. This process is paramount 

to protecting the credibility of government organizations and their employees. 

This two day, 16 hour program has been developed to provide detectives and investigators 

with a comprehensive introduction into conducting these types of investigations. High 

profile public corruption cases require a thorough investigation of prominent individuals 

who may have significant influence on the same law enforcement agency conducting these 

investigations. This course will provide tools and methods that investigators can use to stay 

on target and provide an agency with a defensible position that results in a successful 

outcome for it. 

Topics to be addressed include the following: 

- The allegation(s) 

- Potential violations of criminal/civil/administrative law or regulations 

- Knowledge of elements of crimes and applicable statutes 

- Formal notification procedures 

- Development of an investigative plan and procedures 

- Workplace searches and authorities 

- Types of warnings 

- Final report 

- Disclosure to the public/press (if warranted) 

- Liaison with other agencies

08:00 AM to 04:00 PM 





This innovative one day end user course formerly known as "New Techniques for Effective 

Tactical Police Baton" provides a "stand on its own" baton system and promises to provide 

effective techniques that can be easily learned and put into practice right away. Not only are 

these techniques fast, they are low profile and effective. 

The use of the police baton continues to be a mainstay of officer survival, crowd control, and 

officer defense and control. Unfortunately, many officers are not able to engage in 

confrontations with effective quick strikes and blocks currently taught in other systems. 

This course introduces techniques for overcoming long slow moves and is effectively suited 

to responding to multiple offender attacks. These innovations will be presented utilizing the 

simple and effective Modern Warrior System. 

Modern Warrior instructors are available for offering expert testimony if needed by the 

department and provide an additional certificate upon completion of this course. 


- Use of Force guidelines 

- Kinetic principles and interruption of assault techniques 

- Multiple assailant defenses 

- Blocking, striking and trapping techniques 

- Weak and strong hand use 

- Takedowns and what to do when knocked to the ground 

- Weapon Retention techniques 

This course will be taught by retired Sgt. Bernie Hogancamp (Retired); and Sgt. Craig Sline, 

both of the Homewood Police Department. 

This stand alone program encompasses one of the three blocks of instruction from NEMRT's 

state certified Training Manager Specialist course and is ideal for training managers, 

trainers, and those who supervise the training function. 

Key legal cases, federal and state statutes, civil and criminal laws, current training protocols, 

and trends in training will be discussed in detail. Contemporary topics such as racial 

profiling, use of force, officer stress during high risk activities, sexual harassment, hostile 

work environments, and cultural diversity issues will be addressed. 

Foundational topics to be discussed will include: 

- Firearms, defensive tactics 

- Less lethal force concerns 

- Pursuit driving issues

This 8 hour, one day program will provide an insightful examination of the role of a training 

supervisor. Students will examine training challenges faced by supervisors, including 

planning, budget and time constraints, risk management, and ethical considerations. 

Participants will be provided a model for evaluating what training is needed for their 

respective agencies, as well as other information that will assist them in providing efficient 

supervision of the training function. 


- Differentiating between training and education and how the two can work together 

- The role of ethics in training 

- Planning and organizing training for your agency 

- Motivating officers to learn from generation to generation 

-\ The relationship between training and risk management 




Many departments have purchased manual breaching tools for their agency patrol vehicles. 

Unfortunately, these agencies have trained only special operations and tactical officers in 

their use. In an age of rapid deployment when immediate action by responding officers is 

critically important, this type of training is mission essential. 

There have been numerous active assailants who have fortified the locations of their attacks, 

most notably Seung Hui Cho at Virginia Tech in 2007. This 8 hour course has been designed 

for patrol officers and tactical operators alike and is comprised of practical exercises to be 

conducted in SLEA's 4 D impressive "tactical village." Upon completion of instruction in 

door mechanics, breaching doors and windows, and ingress through the breach point, 

students will be able to properly utilize manual breaching tools for high risk entries. 


- Proper use of the halligan 

- Proper use of the ram 

- Door construction and mechanics 

- Fortified doors 

- Alternate breach points 

- Raking windows 

- Entering the breach point and dominating that room 

- Low light entry

For a variety of reasons, listening and memory are very much misunderstood as learnable 

skills. To see, to hear, and to remember seems like a simple formula, but really it is much 

more complex. This 8 hour course will assist officers recall information, and improve their 

memory and listening skills. 

Systems introduced and practiced will first use mnemonics for object recall, and eventually 

involve family and police related subject areas, such as names, license plates, and variable 

numbers. General orders, elements of offenses and offenses will be included. 

For anyone who as ever wanted to improve both their long term and short term memory, or 

wants to be a better listener, research demonstrates that it is never too late to acquire some 

new habits with systems that make it much easier. 

Officers will be introduced to the following systems in a self taught, fun, interactive 

environment by two experienced communications facilitators: 

- Association systems 

- Tab systems 

- Linking systems 

- Chunking systems 

- Loci technique 

Instructors are Jim Zalud, Communications consultant and Chief Pat Solar (ret.), Genoa P.D. 

They currently are teaching a companion communication skills course known as "Cues & 

Clues for Improving Communication". 

Mental Health First Aid is designed to help officers understand someone who is developing 

a mental health problem or who is experiencing a mental health crisis. Just as CPR training 

helps a person without medical training assist an individual having a heart attack, Mental 

Health First Aid training helps an officer assist someone experiencing a mental health crisis. 

The National Council for Community Behavioral Healthcare’s is course is being taught 

throughout the U.S. as a primary help model for professionals and the general public to 

better understand and assist others with mental health issues. It will raise the bar for all first 

responders to follow. 

Studies have found that those who trained in Mental Health First Aid have greater 

confidence in providing help to others. 

Officers will learn: 

- Potential risk factors and warning signs for a range of mental health problems, including: 

depression, anxiety/trauma, psychosis and psychotic disorders, eating disorders, substance 

use disorders, and self injury; 

- A 5-step action plan encompassing the skills, resources and knowledge to assess the 

situation, to select and implement appropriate interventions, and to help the individual in 

crisis connect with appropriate professional care 

- An understanding of the prevalence of various mental health disorders in the U.S. and the 

need for reduced stigma in their communities 

- Working knowledge of the appropriate professional, peer, social, and self help resources 

available to help someone with a mental health problem treat, manage, and achieve recovery. 

This course is taught through a special program provided by Linden Oaks at Edward 

Hospital. Each student receives a comprehensive workbook as part of this program. It is 

recommended as supportive for departments wishing to enhance their response to persons in 

crisis, persons with mental illness or drug/alcohol dependencies. This program would also be 

supportive of a Crisis Intervention Team (CIT.) initiative by any police department. 

The instructors for this course have been trained National Council for Community 

Behavioral Healthcare, and will include an experienced police officer, Barry Groesch, 

Yorkville Police (ret.) and Doctor of Psychology Charla Waxman.

Whether an officer is unaware of the dangers on the street, apprehensive about his or her 

safety, or complacent with an attitude that "it won't happen to me", this one day class will 

impart a renewed commitment to officer action and safety. 

Actions that officers have taken during actual incidents will be examined and discussed 

throughout this interactive lecture. Additionally, students will be encouraged to develop 

greater self confidence and a positive mental approach to a variety of situations, including 

subject control, searches, responding to sudden stops, and suspicious persons. 

Topics addressed will include: 

- Command presence to discourage resistance 

- The dynamics of armed encounters 

- How winners plan for violent encounters 

- Four principles of close quarter handgun use 

- Responding to off duty encounters 

- Overcoming the most common mental and tactical mistakes 

- Combat breathing technique for daily use and practice 

- Using mental imagery to overcome negativity 

- What we learn from fellow officers who have won violent encounters 

This course will be taught by: Lt. Brian McKenna, Hazelwood Police Department. 

Human resources specialists estimate that replacing an employee costs at least twice his or 

her annual salary. Research shows that people leave when no one is interested in their career 

progress and they feel that no one cares about them. Mentoring satisfies both these needs. 

Once an applicant is offered a position, both the community and the law enforcement agency 

have made a significant financial investment in the professional success of the newly hired 

employee. Once such an investment is made, it is in the best interests of the organization that 

the employee continue to develop and become an integral member contributing to the 

mission and goals of the agency. 

This one day, eight hour program is intended for first line supervisors and mid level 

managers and will examine the difference between mentoring and supervising, recognizing 

the traits of a good mentor, and how to develop/institute a mentoring program with their 

respective agencies. Furthermore, it will provide students with an overview of the benefits to 

employees of successful mentoring programs, including: 

- Smoother transition into the organization 

- Greater understanding of the organizational culture and history 

- Enhanced work skills 

- An enhanced ability to identify future career goals 

The mentoring philosophy examined in this program can be utilized when hiring new 

personnel (both sworn and non sworn) AND can be used as a cross training mechanism for 

newly promoted individuals.

This course provides experienced investigators with the latest information on a number of 

legal decisions which have significantly impacted the gathering of evidence, stopping 

vehicles, conducting searches, and questioning suspects. 

A highly experienced criminal attorney will discuss the ramifications of these decisions in 

investigations involving felonies and/or major cases. Mandated guidelines will be discussed 

in order to improve legal choices and minimize risks of exclusion or the quashing of 

warrants based on these new case law guidelines. 

This course will serve as a foundational update for experienced investigators who need to 

keep abreast of the following topics: 

- Arrest, search and seizure 

- Exclusionary rule revisited 

- Scope of the 4th Amendment 

- Reasonable suspicion and probable cause standards 

- Plain touch, entering vehicles 

- Consent, frisks, and protective sweeps 


This 8 hour program is designed for anyone within the law enforcement community and will 

examine diversity, discrimination and sexual harassment issues in today's complex 

workplace. From a risk management standpoint, this is an area that can bring the most 

successful organization to it's knees. One recent lawsuit cost a law enforcement agency $3 

million. Texaco has paid out $176 million dollars in damages resulting from a sexual 

harassment lawsuit. Ford and Mitsubishi have paid $7.5 million and $34 million 

respectively. 

However..."If it is predictable, it is preventable." Sexual harassment is a form of 

discrimination which an organization can identify and address long before it becomes a legal 

issue. Students are encouraged to bring their agencies' Sexual Harassment policies to class 

for discussion. 

Topics for review include: 

- Quid pro quo 

- Vicarious liability 

- Hostile work environment 

- Tangible employment action 

- Protected activities 

- A company's or agency's "alter ego"

This program is designed for officers with less than five years of on the job experience and 

will review fundamental writing guidelines and suggestions. This program is also 

appropriate for more experienced officers needing to improve their report writing 

proficiency. Most importantly, it will prompt officers to re examine their current writing 

standards and the impact these standards have upon follow up investigations, courtroom 

testimony, and civil litigation. 

Specific objectives include: 

- Examining current writing standards 

- Methods to simplify report writing and reading 

- Emphasizing the importance of complete records 

Participants are required to bring paper, a black non erasable pen (not felt tip), and blank 

copies of their departments' case report forms. These will be handed to the instructor at the 

start of the class.

42 USC, Section 1983, is a federal statute which allows citizens/suspects to successfully sue 

officers for violation of their civil rights. Officers are becoming increasingly more 

vulnerable to suit under Section 1983. Consequently, they must familiarize themselves with 

the rules related to civil rights actions, particularly those based on 4th Amendment rights. 

Officers attending this class will learn how to avoid these suits and, if sued, how to avoid 

liability.

The Sex Offender Registration Act (730 ILCS 150) took effect in 1996, but continues to 

evolve as new laws are passed. This comprehensive law affects law enforcement agencies in 

jurisdictions in which sexual predators or sex offenders expect to reside, work, or attend 

school after their discharge, parole, or release, or during the service of their sentence of 

probation or conditional discharge. Illinois law enforcement agencies are required to register 

these adult and child sex offenders as well as ensure their profiles are entered into the 

LEADS Caution File. 

This course will concentrate on the broad range of responsibilities prescribed by this act. 

Any investigator, manager, or administrator whose duties include record entry, house checks, 

investigations or compliance issues would benefit from this update.

In an era of changing technology, teens often place themselves in situations that result in 

negative consequences that last a lifetime. "Sexting" is a new technology driven trend that 

has law enforcement unsure of how to deal with kids who are, essentially, manufacturing and 

distributing their own child pornography. 

In this 8 hour program, participants will examine the need to educate our children on the 

dangers and effects of "sexting", in addition to providing law enforcement with proactive 

measures that reduce victimization. As a group, students will develop a safety plan outlining 

how law enforcement can effectively handle teens who are committing these crimes and 

tools that parents can use to successfully monitor their children. In SLEA's Digital Lab, 

students will perform exercises that will facilitate their understanding of "sexting" and 

different methodologies that can be used to investigate these offenses.

When properly deployed, a high quality flashlight will increase the effectiveness of any 

application of force, from verbal command to lethal force engagements. 

This 8 hour course will prepare officers to utilize their illumination tool as a force multiplier, 

increasing the officer's ability to prevail during low light encounters. This course will 

prepare the officer for general patrol use, room clearing, CQB, hostage rescue, and officer 

rescue situations. 

Attendees should bring their duty gear, unloaded weapons, magazines, and flashlights. 

Lethal force encounters usually occur within the first two minutes the officer is on the scene, 

and there is an 80% chance that the contact will take place in “low light” conditions. 

The following topics will be addressed: 

- How to dominate time and space in low light conditions 

- Making the principles of low light operations work for you 

- Maintaining the combat mind-set for success 

- Evaluation of student illumination tools and recommendations for future gear selection 

Attendees will be introduce to proper search tactics, light/shoot/move techniques, and 

contingency drills for reloads and weapon malfunctions. 

Tactics employed during this course were originally developed by retired U.S. Navy Seal, 

Ken Good. This training class is based on the highly successful Aurora Police model. It is 

also part of Aurora P.D.’s on going commitment to in service training for all of their officers. 

This course is taught by Lt. Rick Robertson of the Aurora Police Department. 

Watch for the 3-day "live fire" instructor level course coming this Fall! 

This practical course will assist officers in developing effective close quarter fighting 

techniques and applying these newfound skills when fighting on the ground. Whether 

overpowered, off balance, or injured, this course will give them the tactical advantage to 

survive. 

Situations often arise involving the use of escalated force. At these times, officers are more 

susceptible to injury, have less control over their firearms, and have less visibility and 

mobility. In turn, assailant(s) have the option of escaping. 

Participants will learn how to increase their mobility, protect their firearms, protect their 

bodies, and increase their overall fighting and shooting positions. 


- Best ways to fall and land safely (forward and backward) 

- Best ways to roll and when it's appropriate to do so 

- Best ways to throw opponents when you are on the ground 

- Best ways to block and counterstrike 

- Edged weapon defense techniques when officers are on the ground 

- Firearm techniques from the ground 

- Baton techniques from the ground 

- Fighting multiple assailants from the ground 

- Off balance techniques (before officers hit the ground) 

- Techniques against swords and machetes 

- Ground grappling 

- Best ways to get up (recover) from the ground 

- Modern Warrior's concepts of Time Framing and Physio kinetics 

Officers attending this program should wear gym clothes. They may bring their duty belts 

and soft body armor if they wish, but these are not required.

As new policing strategies, protocols, and technologies continue to impact the way 

departments do business, the job responsibilities of the training supervisor/coordinator 

continue to expand correspondingly. Whether it requires better documentation by utilizing 

the computer, responding to the department's new job tasks, more traditional liabilities, or 

new workforce issues, those in charge must be adept at providing practical solutions, must be 

prepared for litigation and courtroom challenges, and have immediate access to resources 

and information to effectively train the department to its mission. 

This 24 hour career development course will provide the department's manager, training 

coordinator, or supervisor with the latest information on how to better utilize resources, 

adapt to liability concerns, and prepare for liability issues associated with training. 


- Computer software applications for managing training records 

- Integrating the department's career development plan with the training plan 

- Working within a budget and/or without much of a training budget 

- Liabilities, less lethal force, defensive tactics, and firearms training 

- State mandates and models that require the Training Manager's attention 

- Career development, remedial training, and adult education issues 

- Examining national, statewide, and local resources 

- Best practices for utilizing Mobile Team and Illinois Law 

- Enforcement Training Standards Board resources 

- Accepted personnel definitions, training standards, and professional associations 

Scenario based training protocols 

Experienced training managers, instructors, and NEMRT staff will provide the latest 

information on the issues outlined above. 

This course has been certified by the Illinois Law Enforcement Training Standards Board. 

This course will be taught by: Deputy Chief Dale Gustafson, Homewood Police Department; 

Deputy Chief Chuck Mader, Bloomingdale Police Department (Retired); Captain John 

Touhy, Burbank Police Department; and Deputy Chief Patrick Kreis, Winnetka Police 

Department. 

Recently, a number of conflicting and disturbing case law precedents have changed the way 

officers approach search and seizure. Practices that until now have been accepted as 

reasonable have caused evidence and arrests to be overturned. 

An experienced attorney and law expert will guide investigators, tactical officers, and patrol 

officers through the most recent critical case law that has affected basic street enforcement 

and investigative practices. 

Recommendations on tactics that will hold up in court in practical situations will be 

exchanged in a highly interactive classroom environment. Due to the comprehensive nature 

of this special presentation, experienced officers, supervisors and major case task force 

investigators are encouraged to attend. 

Topics addressed include: 

- Suspicious stops and vehicle stops 

- Questioning of passengers in vehicles 

- 4th Amendment interpretations 

- Consent searches 

All attendees will be provided with a comprehensive law guide to use as a permanent 

reference for their department.

Registration Information

Pre-Registration 

REGISTRATIoN INFoRMATIoN 

NEMRT courses are filled on a first-come, first-serve basis, based upon the Pre-Registration forms we receive. Typically, our courses quickly 

fill to capacity. Once a class has reached its capacity of students, "Stand-By" lists are created. 

Students on stand-by lists may not attend our programs. All students must first be confirmed by our Registrar's office. After receiving 

confirmation, students may attend the training program, where they complete an actual registration form. Confirmation and stand-by lists are 

distributed weekly by the Registrar. 

Please keep in mind that courses fill quickly. Pre-register your students early! 

Attendance Policy 

The Illinois Law Enforcement Training and Standards Board (ILETSB) requires that all attendees of a course for which they will receive a 

certificate from the Board be present for 90% of the course. For example, one must be present for 36 hours of an ILETSB-certified 40 hour 

course. NEMRT has adopted that policy for all of its training programs, allowing attendees to miss no more than 10% of any course, with a 

legitimate excuse (family emergency, need to appear in court, reassignment, etc.) and still receive a NEMRT certificate. 

Cancellations 

When we receive a cancellation, students are moved from the stand-by list to fill the vacancy. We then notify your training officer that the 

student has been moved from stand-by and confirmed to attend the program. 

Occasionally, training officers fail to notify us that an officer will be unable to attend. When this occurs, students on the stand-by list are denied 

an opportunity to attend the training they need. 

To avoid this situation, please contact the Registrar's Office as soon as possible regarding schedule conflicts and cancellations. With this 

information, we are able to move officers from stand-by lists and into course rosters. This increases both the number of officers receiving 

training and the overall effectiveness of your training dollars. 

Please note in the Course Description section the statements about cancellation deadlines and billing for each class. Usually, the deadline is 7 

days prior to the start of the course unless otherwise noted.

Part Time Training Info

Basic Part-Time 

Law Enforcement officer Training 

In accordance with Public Act 89-170, all part-time sworn police officers in the state of Illinois 

are required to successfully complete a Basic Part-Time Law Enforcement Officer Training Course. 

North East Multi-Regional Training, Inc. is offering a choice of two different basic training academies 

to fulfill the requirements of this act. The tuition shown below for each of these academies is eligible 

for reimbursement through the Illinois Law Enforcement Training Standards Board. 

Part-time Enhancement Program 

NEMRT’s Part-Time Enhancement Program is a 360 hour course 

presented in four consecutive modules, each certified by the Illinois 

Law Enforcement Training Standards Board. The curriculum 

replicates the 400 hour Basic Training Program conducted at each of 

the state’s basic police academies, including the philosophies of 

Community Oriented Policing. 

The PEP program is taught by current law enforcement 

practitioners and hosted by local community colleges. Students 

completing the PEP course will be eligible to receive upwards of 20 

hours of college credit from the host college. The course consists of 

approximately 16 hours of classroom and hands-on training each 

week, distributed over two weekly 4-hour evening sessions and one 

8-hour session each Saturday. Students will complete exams, write 

term papers and reports, and maintain a notebook throughout the 

program. The total program requires approximately 6 months to 

complete. 

No PEP programs are currently scheduled for 2012. 

Tuition: $1,580.00 

Specialized Training Testing And 

Recordkeeping 

Through the efforts of the Illinois Law Enforcement Training 

Standards Board, the ILETSB Executive Institute, and the Center for 

Applied Internet Technology (CAIT) at Western Illinois University, 

the STTAR program has been redeveloped and updated to deliver 

part-time basic training in a cutting-edge distance learning format 

using the internet. 

Approximately 212 hours of instruction are delivered via the 

internet, allowing students to choose the times most convenient for 

them to independently complete an average of seven hours of training 

per week through the internet. This training is supplemented with 

eight-hour classroom sessions conducted on Saturdays, where the 

students receive lectures from instructors who are experts on the 

subject matter, and to participate in performance-based practical 

exercises. 

This program, with the addition of the 40 Hour Mandatory Firearms 

Training course, meets the 400 hour curriculum for law enforcement 

basic training. In total, the program takes approximately 9 months to 

complete. 

The next STTAR class is tentatively scheduled to begin in 

August 2012, at Triton College PoWER testing dates are to be 

determined. 

Tuition: $1,000.00 

Students are required to successfully complete the P.o.W.E.R. test to enroll in either PEP or STTAR. NEMRT offers the P.o.W.E.R. test 

prior to the orientation for each program. There is a $35.00 fee to take the test. Exact dates and locations will be announced. 

The 40 Hour Mandatory Firearms course is not included within either the PEP or the STTAR academies. Therefore, we have arranged a special 

firearms course reserved for those part-time officers enrolling in the academy who have not yet been certified. Tuition for the course is the 

standard in-service tuition of $175.00. Please indicate on the pre-registration form those officers who are enrolling in both the academy and the 

firearms course. The dates for this course will be announced. 

Contact April Morris, Basic Training Manager, for required enrollment paperwork.

CoNSULTING SERVICES 

This course catalog reflects the training needs of agencies throughout our membership. However, we realize 

that your department may also have unique, sudden, or critical training needs that may not be addressed 

among these courses. We also realize that you may not have the time or resources necessary to develop 

customized, high-quality training programs. To meet these unique needs, NEMRT staff is available to 

develop In-House programs. 

Customized Training 

In-House programs provide customized training, designed exclusively for your department’s needs and 

scheduling demands. They can be a valuable means of meeting your departmental training goals effectively 

and efficiently. 

NEMRT staff will develop your curriculum, contract with instructors, compile handouts, process 

registrations, and issue training certificates. Many area departments have taken advantage of this valuable 

service. In fact, NEMRT develops over 200 In-House training programs a year! 

Standard Curriculum 

Some agencies have used In-House programming not only for customized curriculum, but also to deliver 

our standard in-service programming to their entire departments. A partial list of these In-House courses 

includes: 

m Verbal Judo 

m Courtesy and Diplomacy for Non-Sworn Personnel 

m Laws of Arrest, Search and Seizure 

m Hazardous Materials Refresher 

m Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus 

m Essential Spanish for Police 

Additional Information 

If you have any questions about our In-House programming services, please call John Haley, Deputy 

Director, Research and Development, at (630) 896-8860, ext. 107. John will be happy to discuss your needs 

and provide valuable training alternatives.

Director Philip A. Brankin at (630) 896-8860, ext. 106. 


THE ASSIST PRoGRAM 

The Illinois Law Enforcement Training Standards Board administers the Intergovernmental Law 

Enforcement Officers In-Service Training Act (P.A. 82-674). This Act, coupled with the Traffic 

Surcharge and Criminal Conviction fund, provides the structure and financial support for a unique 

state\local partnership. This partnership provides decentralized delivery of in-service training 

within commuting distance of virtually every law enforcement and corrections officer in the state. 

On Jan. 1, 1983, The Illinois Law Enforcement Training Standards Board launched A Statewide 

System of In-Service Training, known as the ASSIST Program. Within five years, the Mobile Team 

Unit conducted over 7,000 courses for over 120,000 in-service practitioners. The ASSIST Program 

has since gained national recognition as one of the most cost-effective and comprehensive inservice 

training systems in the United States. 

The objectives of the program are: 

150 

m To encourage local law enforcement and corrections officers to upgrade their 

knowledge, skills, and techniques pertinent to the law enforcement profession 

m To provide local law enforcement officers with training opportunities within 

their own locales and on flexible schedules 

m To provide quality training on topics of instruction centered on specific training 

needs 


NEMRT MEMBERSHIP 

Annual membership in North East Multi-Regional Training will be $90.00 per full-time 

officer. In addition to payment for all full-time officers, members may select from three payment 

options to tailor training for their civilian, reserve, part-time, and auxiliary officers: 

1. You may pay for all full-time, part-time, reserve and auxiliary officers, and civilians 

within your total membership at $90.00 per individual. 

2. You may pay for all full-time officers and only a specified number of your total 

civilian, reserve, part-time, and auxiliary officers. The number chosen is entirely up 

to you. 

3. You may pay for full-time officers only and pay non-member tuition fees for those 

classes attended by your civilian, reserve, part-time, and auxiliary officers. 

As an added benefit, members employing more than 125 full-time officers need only pay for the 

first 125 officers. This maximum membership fee of $11,250.00 entitles all full-time officers, not 

merely the first 125, to unlimited training through North East Multi-Regional Training for the 

membership year. Membership fees would still need to be paid for any part-time, reserve, or 

civilian employees you wish to include. 

Occasionally, courses are offered that require tuition from member and non-member departments 

alike. These fees arise from the special equipment that may accompany the course, or from the 

expense arising from bringing in an out-of-state expert for timely courses of a technical nature. 

However, member department tuition fees are typically lower than a non-members. 


MEMBERSHIP CATEGoRIES 

NEMRT's voting membership consists of municipal and county law enforcement agencies whose 

units of government have voluntarily signed an Intergovernmental Agreement, or have passed a 

Resolution and Adoption of existing Intergovernmental Agreements, which establishes "NEMRT, 

INC." as a mobile team in-service training unit. Member departments are invited to the Annual 

Election of Directors, held on the third Tuesday of March, to cast their votes. 

Member department Intergovernmental Agreements are self-renewing and do not require annual 

processing unless membership is dropped for more than one year. Then the Agreements will be

This distance learning, web-based training program has been designed by NEMRT, highly 

skilled law enforcement practitioners, and UMEDIA, Inc. to familiarize newly-assigned 

juvenile officers with the legal, social, and moral responsibilities they will be expected to meet 

as juvenile specialists. Participants will be trained to enforce the law in a manner which is 

compassionate, effective, and responsive to the needs of children and their families. 

The range of responsibilities which fall to juvenile officers is as varied and complex as the 

individuals they serve. As such, challenging issues officers are likely to face in their new role 

will be examined in detail. Upon completion of this program, students will be able to 

demonstrate the core skills required of a juvenile specialist. 

Officers who take this course and pass the examination will be Illinois state-certified Juvenile 

Officers, just as if they had attended a traditional, classroom training course. 

You may register your officer for an examination date and time as you would for any NEMRT 

course. Registrations can be submitted via fax or made on-line at www.nemrt.com. Please note: 

access to the program must be paid prior to examinations being taken.
