From its inception in 1957, the mission of the Institute for Law Enforcement Administration has been to provide quality educational programs designed to enhance the professional development of law enforcement leaders at all levels.

This four-week learning experience will focus on managing for change and the importance of using teams and problem-solving techniques to improve performance in your organization. It is designed to provide for a stimulating treatment of current management practices using experiential exercises that focus on communication skills for leaders. Ethics and leadership issues will be covered to assist police leaders in thinking through the challenges that are prevalent in a changing environment. This course also includes an assessment of management competencies and styles using the CPI 260 (California Psychological Inventory); Myers-Briggs Type Indicator; and the ICS (Intercultural Conflict Style Inventory).
