Hear a success story in which SafeGrowth and PBL were used in New Orleans, and how a woman helped turn things around in her community.

Greg challenges traditional police training and suggests that it is one cause of today’s police/community turbulence.

“We truly didn’t know what we didn’t know at the beginning of the PBL and PTO training. Now we know there is a superior method of training recruits. It has been an energizing experience to break free from our old training practices and to begin the progressive training of our future police officers.”

BRING BACK THE TRAINING TO YOUR COMMUNITY

At PSPBL, we understand that traditional training habits can be comfortable for the instructor, but they may be ineffective for the learner. From academies to post-academy field training, and into advanced officer courses, wouldn’t you want your learners to experience the best training possible? PSPBL meets this goal by promoting high-quality online, classroom, and on-the-job training using the most current adult learning theory.

We advocate meeting and exceeding community expectations for problem-solving, effective incident response, collaboration, and trust-building. By recognizing the ways in which adults (both inside and outside our agencies) learn, we encourage police-community relations. We build on trust and relationships with Emotional Intelligence training and practices.

Our police agencies and our communities deserve creative problem-solvers as their trusted partners to help them make their neighborhoods safe. How will you teach your officers to fill this role? This is what we do at PSPBL. Become a member of PSPBL and be part of the positive change policing needs today.
