ICI provides cutting-edge training to prepare investigators to meet and manage the challenges of conducting complex criminal investigations. In compliance with P.C. 13519.9, the program consists of an 80-hour core investigations course, 16 foundation specialty courses (e.g., Sexual Assault Investigation, Child Abuse Investigation, Officer Involved Shootings, and Terrorism) and a series of elective investigative courses.
The Institute will include the use of eight approved contract presenters located around the state. This training is offered without tuition cost for participants in the POST Reimbursable Program.
A breakdown of training course presentation costs is described in Attachment A.
This request is $261,700 more than the 2016-17 request. The increase is a result of adding the following 10 courses, which will reduce the waiting list of peace officers attending ICI courses.
-
Los Angeles Police Department - added one Human Trafficking Course.
- Northern California Public Safety Training Authority (Sacramento) - added two Core Courses, one Homicide Course, and one Officer Involved Shooting Course.
- South Bay Regional Public Safety Training Consortium - added one Core Course, one Homicide Course, and three Human Trafficking Courses.
The ICI Program is supported by POST Strategic Plan Objectives A.1 California law enforcement agencies are prepared to address emerging trends and challenges, A.1.1 Identify and convey information on emerging trends to the field, and A.1.2 Establish a process to ensure POST-developed courses are relevant and contemporary. |
