Web Stress Management Series 1

Stress Management for Today's Policing 
Course information:

Nearly twice the number of officers take their own life than those killed in the line of duty. Stress Management continues to remain an important and underappreciated aspect of law enforcement. Even after decades of research and training, law enforcement practitioners continue to assume that some things are just “part of the job”.

The common exposure to anguish, dangers of the job, and career responsibility only accompany the ever-changing police culture. These factors have made stress demands on law enforcement even more difficult. 

The ability for an officer to express and control their emotions is essential, but so is the ability to understand, interpret, and respond to the emotions of others. A law enforcement practitioner’s ability to manage and use their emotions effectively and in a positive way is crucial for stress management and career survival while aiding in and helping establish positive community relations.

This course is designed for and been delivered to every level of law enforcement officer from patrol to command staff.
