In conjunction with the Division of Workforce Training, theDivision of Public Safety offers specialized Law Enforcement schools each year, serving upper east Tennessee Law Enforcement Agencies. The courses offered are coordinated with the respective agencies in order to fulfill their training needs. Programs offered do receive POST certification. In addition to our catalog listing of programs, we do have the option to provide customization of programs as well as offer them at your location. Many agencies take advantage of this option which reduces overall training expense in terms of man-hours lost, as well as travel and lodging.
