Legal Fundamentals: Critical Decisions for Law Enforcement

 

The Legal Fundamentals: Critical Decisions for Law Enforcement digital job aid incorporates best practices for adults to interact with and learn foundational information related to legal fundamentals and implications for daily decision-making for officers. The digital job aid is designed around a set of fundamental legal categories so users can explore core principles of critical decision-making. Each principle offers a variety of ways for users to interact including scenarios, videos, audio, case law, resources, and knowledge assessments.


Trainers should consult the instructor's guide for ideas on how the tool can enhance or supplement existing basic, in-service, and roll-call training, including sample scenarios and test questions.
