In partnership with the USDOJ, COPS Office, NCPI is developing and delivering a comprehensive national public safety training initiative designed to support trust-building, effective relationships, and engagement in communities throughout the U.S.

The Effectiveness Edge: Closing the Bias Gap through Community Policing (or The Edge) is a multifaceted, blended-learning training program that equips law enforcement and other public safety practitioners with insights on how to recognize information gaps caused by bias and actionable strategies to mitigate the effects of bias.

Through this program, NCPI will build The Edge curriculum including all multi-media components, train a cadre of instructors, deliver dozens of interactive, in-person workshops throughout the nation, and provide web-based access to all program resources through an online resource center.

Details on scheduling in-person sessions of this course, as well as accessing the web-based components, will be available soon.
