Submitted by Daingerfield1 on
Cass County Precinct 2 Constable Jerry A. Goodson graduated from the 10th Class of the Texas Constable’s Leadership College during a ceremony held on May 9. “We strive to strengthen public confidence, develop and maintain positive relations with the community, and promote a safe and friendly community through enforcement and education. Training is an investment in this agency’s future and can be a factor in the future of our community, Constable Goodson said.” The 10th class graduates completed three modules of training that included all aspects of modern law enforcement management techniques, styles, and philosophies. This program is highly interactive and requires each participant to create a Personal Leadership Philosophy paper reflecting their views on leadership, leadership practice, vision for the organization and community and plans for professional growth. All 25 constables from 25 different precincts throughout Texas were awarded a diploma and insignia of the professional designation.
Topics covered in the program include:
Practical Psychology for Policing
Internal Affairs, Leadership, and Ethics
Professionalism and Beyond
Communications
Human Resources Management
Intergovernmental Relations
Cultural Diversity and Team Building
Officer-Involved Shooting
Incident Command Simulation Training
Suicide Terrorism
Etiquette
History of the Constables
Legal Liability and Civil Rights Issues
The Texas Constable’s Leadership College program is provided at no cost to the agencies or participants, but is funded through fund allocations through the Law Enforcement Management Institute of Texas, a nationally recognized law enforcement institute offering premier professional development opportunities.
