After a national solicitation
for new instructors, and a national survey of training needs
in law enforcement, Police Technical is proud to announce
our selection of 4 new instructors and 6 new courses.
Each
new instructor is a qualified expert in their subject and each
brings a new perspective
on technical training to American law enforcement. If you've
taken classes with us in the past, you know our level of
commitment and dedication to training. Our new instructors
and their classes will meet those same exacting standards.
Congratulations to our
new instructors, we look forward to working with them as we
work together
to provide the best in technical training for law enforcement.

Headlines like these show something’s missing; that law
enforcement agencies aren’t yet effectively using social
media.
Doug Nolte, Lt., Information Services Unit
Commander, Wichita (KS) Police Department, wants to change
this. He’s successfully guided his own department’s social
media use
and now as one of Police Technical’s newest instructors
he’s set to assist agencies across the country, with
his course
Social Media
for Law Enforcement.
How it all started
Social media usage in the US has exploded in the past
5 years. Virtually everybody capable of using a computer
(including
law enforcement personnel) has a social media account
(Facebook, Linkedin, YouTube, Google+, Twitter, or similar).
But because
they are easy to set up and “run”, virtually no one has
received training to use these online services. A few
agencies now warn
their people to stay off these services, but very few
have been proactive with training. How did we get to
a point where
some
personnel spend hours using services (yes, on the job)
without any training? And more importantly, what can
be done?
Lt. Doug Nolte is a nineteen-year
veteran of the Wichita Police Department. He is currently is assigned
as the Information Services Section Commander overseeing department
public information and communications.
Lt. Nolte also oversees the Wichita Police Department web services and social
media (i.e. Facebook, Twitter and YouTube) operations.
Lt. Nolte received his Master’s in Management from Friends
University in 1999. He graduated Magna Cum Laude from Wichita State University
in May 1992 with a B.S. in Administration of Justice. He has served as
an adjunct professor at Wichita State University and Butler County Community
College.
Lt. Nolte and his wife live in Kansas. They have five children,
and also are active in opening their home to children in need of foster
care.

There are many users of PowerPoint® software,
and many schools and universities offer general PowerPoint® training. But when you want PowerPoint® training specifically geared towards the public safety market there is only
one provider who has meet the standard to be eligible to be recognized as a
sole source provider, Police Technical Inc.
In mid 2007 Police Technical Inc began a process of training Federal law enforcement
agencies. During the contract process each agency had to determine what other
companies, if any, provided similar training services.
Police Technical Inc was required to provide documentation about training sessions
and contracts for the past several years to prove eligibility. After reviewing
the materials submitted, along with a list of other PowerPoint® training
vendors it was determined that Police Technical Inc’s “PowerPoint® for Public Safety™” was a uniquely designed course specifically created for public safety and entitled
