“Turning Terror into Confidence on the Stand”

Do words like subpoena, trial, testify, or court cause you to sweat and your heart to pound? Haven’t been to court in a couple of years?  The courtroom places Officers on display and showcases their daily work product. Being called to the witness stand doesn’t have to be unpleasant. Although, it frequently is an unpleasant experience if an Officer faces an environment they aren’t prepared for.

This 4-hour course provides officers with basic knowledge (or a refresher for veteran officers) of terminology, what to expect, the stages of trial, common defense tricks and how you can prepare to testify.
