INSTRUCTIONAL GOAL: To familiarize First Line Supervisors with the skills, techniques, and basic concepts of supervision. An understanding of these concepts is fundamental for First Line Supervisors to be successful as mentors, trainers, and as leaders. A properly trained professional supervisor is one of the best weapons any law enforcement agency can have in their arsenal, as they will pass on their training and professional attitude to the younger officers.
