Community Diversity Instructor Update

2/9/2016
Do you currently teach the Community Diversity topic in either a Peace Officer basic training class, a Corrections Officer basic training class, a Jailer Basic training class, or a Private Security basic training class? If so, this notification is for you.

The Community Diversity Instructor Update class is a mandatory update course which prepares instructors who are currently certified to teach the old Community Diversity curriculum in Peace Officer Basic Training, Private Security Basic Training, Corrections Basic Training, and Jailer Basic Training to teach the new Community Diversity & Procedural Justice topic. This new curriculum combines an updated Community Diversity curriculum with two other new topics, Procedural Justice and Implicit Bias, and replaces the current Community Diversity curriculum.

Prerequisite: Students must have successfully completed an OPOTC-sanctioned Instructional Skills course and the old OPOTC Community Diversity Instructor Course prior to enrolling.

Note: Current Community Diversity instructors who do not successfully complete this update prior to July 1, 2016, will not be certified to teach the new Community Diversity & Procedural Justice topic.

There are currently many dates offered for the Update class, and they can be found on our online catalog, so sign up today!
