As we reach the halfway point of the year, many of our member county officials begin worrying about how they will complete their required continuing education hours. And, when incidents arise that justify targeted or broad staff training or re-training in a particular area, like defensive driving skills, anti-bias, jail safety principles, or stress management, an easily accessible on-demand training course can be a valuable strategy in preventing future claims.
Among the many training options available to NIRMA members is NIRMA Online University – a platform powered by our partner, Lexipol, to bring you online courses in a vast array of topics. In the past twelve months, popular courses have included: Preventing Sexual Harassment, Employee Free Speech, Jail/Law Enforcement Courses from the PoliceOne catalog, and Dealing with Stress.
To access courses, enter your login credentials on our website, and find the NIRMA Online University link at the bottom of the home page. You’ll need to enter your separate login credentials on that page, or if you are a new user, fill out the online registration form to get started. Questions? Reach out to us at the NIRMA office.
