PoliceOne and Calibre Press Announce Upcoming Launch of the PoliceOne Academy

Online video training library to be unveiled on 4-city tour coinciding with launch

SAN FRANCISCO – PoliceOne.com, the leading online resource for the law enforcement community, has teamed up with Calibre Press, the top provider of law enforcement training nationwide, to bring officers the PoliceOne Academy, the most comprehensive online training video library for law enforcement agencies.

With more than 350 high-definition training videos from leading law enforcement experts, the PoliceOne Academy offers a first-of-its-kind, advanced delivery system that ensures a high quality of streaming along with access to training segments 24/7.  The Academy features a wide range of videos covering categories ranging from defensive tactics to leadership, all designed to advance officers’ performance and give them the essential skills to help them succeed on the job. 

“With city, county and state budgets facing unprecedented cuts, law enforcement is in dire need of training solutions that keep officers on street and are cost effective, efficient and comprehensive.  The PoliceOne Academy combines Calibre Press’ 30 years of experience training law enforcement with PoliceOne’s technology, reach and online content,” said Alex Ford, CEO for PoliceOne.  “We are proud to be able to add video training as another tool to help us achieve our goal of providing officers with the information and resources they need to stay safe on the job and better protect their communities.”

With new videos being added each week, the academy is an ideal solution for roll call or in service training.  The PoliceOne Academy launches early January and will be available to departments for an annual subscription based on agency size.
