BETTER RETENTION OF CONCEPTS

Hundreds of studies in cognitive and educational psychology demonstrate that microlearning produces superior long-term learning, compared with repetitions that are massed together, such as in traditional classes. Kang, 2016.


EFFICIENT FOR AGENCIES

Designed to keep your entire agency updated without any travel, per diem, overtime or backfill. Your officers will receive a steady stream of quality training and then get out to the street answering calls…fast.

IMPROVED ABILITY & PERFORMANCE

Studies conclude that microlearning techniques improve the effectiveness and efficiency of learning and the knowledge stays memorable for longer periods of time. Mohammed et al, 2018; Jomah et al, 2016.


ESSENTIAL FOR YOUR COMMUNITY

When they're properly educated, your officers will be more confident in their decision-making and more likely to treat community members with the respect and dignity they deserve.

"The platform provides an effortless way for our sergeants to discuss critical issues that are integral to improving officer performance and minimizing risk. Needless to say, I’m thrilled with what The Briefing Room has to offer."

"As a result of The Briefing Room training, my officers were able to control a combative, handcuffed man without injuring him or themselves. In fact, they told me The Briefing Room training gave them confidence because it clarified the bounds of their legal authority for using force under those circumstances."

Lieutenant Justin Haugen, Sonoma County Sheriff's Office

"The patrol supervisors are regularly using the program in their briefings and love it! The ease of use and guiding information is so productive in a short amount of time in our briefings."

Sergeant Dustin Poore, Elk Grove PD

John Doe's Image
"My Undersheriff was skeptical at first with The Briefing Room. Until he learned that all videos have multiple review panels prior to being published, they are consistent with current laws, regulations, procedures etc. Now after using The Briefing Room for about 6 months, he continues to give me kudos for bringing it to his attention and implementing it into our briefing sessions. We have found great value in the content being put out by your team. The documentation in being able to show our agency is taking a proactive approach in regard to continued education is paramount in today's Law Enforcement world. The Briefing Room facilitates that very efficiently. We look forward to continue using The Briefing Room. Thanks for developing a great product!"

Sergeant Taylor Green, Alpine County Sheriff's Office

John Doe's Image
"The video put together for the Tulare case wherein you showed the video from the 9th circuit hearings was very well received and gave great insight for our new Officers who have never been exposed to a high-level courtroom. It was also eye-opening for them to hear the attorney arguing that Officers should not have returned fire right away."

Sergeant Travis Hartman, Westminster P.D.

John Doe's Image
"I have only heard positive feedback from our officers regarding The Briefing Room. We like how the videos are straight to the point, without superfluous info that detracts from the overall messaging. It's a great product, and we enjoy it."

Officers in briefing watching R.I.S.E. Training Blocks from the Briefing Room

At the Briefing Room, we know you want to provide the highest level of service to your community while minimizing total liability. But law enforcement today is operating in an environment of intense scrutiny while training budgets remain stretched thin, making it increasingly difficult for officers to rise to everyday challenges.


These difficulties leave you with the uncertainty of ensuring your officers' safety, maintaining public trust, and exposure to unnecessary liability. You shouldn't have to leave these things entirely to chance.


We've seen how ineffective most training is during our own time in law enforcement. State minimum training standards are insufficient to prepare law enforcement officers for society's expectations, and sending officers to training is expensive with a low return on investment for the entire agency. 


The Briefing Room's 90-Second R.I.S.E. Training Blocks are the solution. They are focused, evidence-based training sessions created in line with the latest research on micro-training and have been field-tested and refined by over 800 officers. 


As a result, those officers are more prepared for the difficulties that arise every day in patrol and custody. Most importantly, the entire police agency is on the same page, addressing incidents as a team because they are all receiving the same leading-edge training.

This post is only offered as a discussion topic only and does not represent legal advice. Officers must refer to the laws in their own State as well as their agency's policies, which can be more restrictive on officers that the law requires. Scenario: While working patrol, an officer legally detains a juvenile in the parking lot of a movie theater. After the officer gets consent to search her backpack, they discover the juvenile has an unloaded firearm that's registered to her parents. Is there any circumstance under which the juvenile can lawfully possess a firearm in California? Answer: According to California Penal Code Section 29610(c) says: “Commencing July 1, 2023, a minor shall not possess any firearm.” However, Section 29615 lists several exceptions to this which require the juvenile either be accompanied by a parent, guarding or responsible adult or has their permission. They also must be in direct transit to or from a lawful recreational sport or activity or be on lands owned by their parent or guardian. You can find those exceptions listed in their entirety in the additional resources for this video. This blog topic serves as a summary of our video lesson on this crucial topic.

This post is only offered as a discussion topic only and does not represent legal advice. Officers must refer to the laws in their own State as well as their agency's policies, which can be more restrictive on officers that the law requires. Scenario: While working patrol, an officer responds to a vandalism call. When they arrive, a shop owner says that they observed another person vandalizing the front of their store. That person is still present and the shop owner wants that person arrested for the misdemeanor crime. Is the officer required to accept the citizen's arrest regardless of the evidence that they find and what liability exists in making the wrong decision? Answer: Unfortunately, this scenario is made complicated by a series of case and statutory laws that each address individual aspects of this issue. In 2005, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals sought to clarify this issue by summarizing the law around citizen's arrests in a case called Meyers v. Redwood City. In that case, the court said, "California law gives the officer the choice of making the citizen's arrest or not, but there are powerful incentives to make the arrest. On the one hand, an officer who makes an arrest pursuant to a citizen's complaint is not subject to liability for false arrest or false imprisonment. CAL. PENAL CODE § 847(b)(3). On the other hand, an officer does not have to effect the arrest if he or she "is satisfied that there are insufficient grounds for making a criminal complaint[.]" CAL. PENAL CODE § 849(b)(1). However, there is a catch: If it turns out that there were grounds for the complaint and the officer failed to take the suspect into custody, the officer is subject to fines or imprisonment. CAL.PENAL CODE § 142(a). The California courts have held that even though an officer may decline to take a suspect into custody under Section 849 if he finds no grounds for the complaint, an officer cannot be sued civilly if he makes the arrest and, it turns out, there were no grounds for the citizen's arrest." On these calls, its important to do thorough investigations beyond just listening what the victim has to say. This includes looking for physical and video evidence and speaking to witnesses. If there isn't probable cause for the arrest or its clear the person did not commit the crime they're being accused of, officers are not required to accept the citizen's arrest. But, if there are reasonable grounds for the citizen's arrest and the officer fails to accept the arrest, the officer may be subject to fines or imprisonment. As always, the resources mentioned in this training are available in the additional resources section of your TheBriefingRoom.com Learning Platform and officers should make sure to refer to your agency policy which can be more restrictive on officers than the law requires.

A Police officer is backing up their partner on a traffic stop in an area known for gang activity. The officer's partner discovers that the backseat passenger is on parole and conducts a parole search of the vehicle. While conducting the search, the partner uses the ignition key to unlock the locked glove box and finds a loaded firearm. Was the search of the locked glove box based on the backseat passenger's parole status lawful?
