The final level of the three core traffic collision investigation courses.  Reconstruction contains highly technical subject matter
including interpreting evidence from a collision scene, reconstructing collision and using mathematical computations to determine
causation factors of a collision.  Officers use diagramming tools, measuring instruments and photographs, as well as elements of algebra,
geometry and trigonometry in case determination. The course includes stage collision situations and diagramming projects to provide
practice in determining the speed of a vehicle in a collision, the effects of weight shifting in braking, the effects of anti-skid breaking systems,
direction of travel, initial contact points and position of vehicle on the roadway. Because of the highly technical subject matter, it is mandatory
of each applicant to have successfully completed the On-Scene and Advanced Collision Investigation Training Courses or equivalent training

IACP Training
First Line Supervision October 29-31, 2008 Lancaster, PA

MANHEIM TOWNSHIP POLICE DEPARTMENT IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF CHIEFS OF POLICE WILL COSPONSOR A FIRST LINE SUPERVISION PROGRAM
As societies change, so do their elements, and policing is no exception. Both the workplace and communities reflect increasing diversity and different value systems, officers are empowered to resolve problems, and accountability for action has shifted. As police environments evolve, traditional assumptions regarding supervisory roles are now challenged. Like all change, this is inherently uncertain and stressful but presents a significant opportunity for the responsive, adaptable supervisor.
This course, designed for newly or soon-to-be promoted supervisors, will enhance the supervision skills required to successfully manage today’s organizations.
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
define and explain the principles of effective management and supervision
identify and explain the steps in dealing with a problem employee
understand the concept of flexibility in management techniques regarding differences among subordinates
employ strategies to enhance employee willingness and involvement in the organization
understand and apply progressive discipline
Confirm the status of this course with IACP before making non-refundable airline reservations
