MPOETC mandatory in-service course: Legal Update 2020(120-001)

The PAVTN also offers a number of interesting MPOETC Continuing Law Enforcement Elective (CLEE) courses

Responding to Male Victims of Intimate Partner Violence

CLE01166 - 1 Credit Hour

Intimate partner violence is widespread. Although the majority of domestic violence victims are women, abuse of men happens more often than you might expect. This course addresses the prevalence of male victims of intimate partner violence, the nature of abuse men face, how male socialization and victimization impact male victims, and strategies for responding to males.

Delivering Death Notifications

CLE00896 - 3 Credit Hours

Delivering death notifications is frequently considered one of the most difficult aspects of our job. Throughout this course, we highlight the importance of being trained and prepared to deliver death notifications in a sensitive, yet professional and thoughtful, manner. The course features video interviews from police chiefs experienced in delivering death notifications.

CLE00801 - 1 Credit Hour

Intimate partner violence or IPV describes physical, sexual, or psychological harm by a current or former intimate partner.

Campus IPV cases are different than other assault and domestic violence situations. Therefore, the approach for responding to a campus IPV situation involving young adults is different than responding to a domestic violence call involving older or more experienced or mature adults. This course is intended to enhance your recognition and response to intimate partner violence on campus. 

Investigating Strangulation

CLE00779 - 1 Credit Hour

Recent studies have shown that almost half of all domestic violence homicide victims had experienced at least one episode of attempted strangulation prior to a lethal or near lethal violent incident.

This course will enhance your response to calls involving strangulation by explaining the dangers of strangulation, identifying the various signs and symptoms of strangulation and identifying and implementing actions to help strangulation victims.

Protection of Victims of Sexual Violence or Intimidation Act

CLE00699 - 1 Credit Hour

Through this training, you will learn who is protected under the Protection of Victims of Sexual Violence or Intimidation Act, what kinds of protections are available, how this Act differs from the Protection from Abuse Act, and the legal process for protection orders. 

PAVTN transfers your completed course credits to TACS. Read more

There is no more challenging profession than police work. Protecting citizens, preserving the peace and putting their lives on the line are all in a day’s work. They deserve our full support. Integral to that support is training that is relevant, streamlined, and cost-effective. That gives of­ficers more advanced skills, time and resources to fight crime. That’s what PAVTN.net provides. That’s our mission.

VISION

In this era, resources are severely limited at every level of government. By bringing law enforcement training online, multiple agencies can share curricula, develop classes that address critical needs, and update training quickly. Through the use of audio narration, video, and inter­active scenarios, officers gain the critical knowledge to improve their skills, serve the public and advance their careers. This vision is taking shape today. The evidence is clear. Online training is the way. A December 2009 survey found that 94% of PCPA respondents support internet-based training to save time, money and improve mandatory law enforcement training. 

BENEFITS

• Safer Public • Cost effectiveness • Less time training

• More engaged officers • Up to the minute information • Expanded curricula

• Better training • Administrative efficiency • 24/7 online access
