Promotes police leadership by enhancing training for command-level personnel through the COPS program.
The Promoting Police Leadership Act amends the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 to improve the COPS program. It mandates the Attorney General to develop or identify training curricula for command-level personnel, focusing on leadership, critical incident response, risk management, and officer wellness. The curricula must include in-person instruction, peer-to-peer learning, and a problem-solving framework. The Attorney General must also establish a process for certifying training programs and courses.
