WHY DO OFFICERS LOVE SOFXLE?
We are told time and again that police officers dread nothing more than another training day filled with "death by PowerPoint." However, this is not your typical training. You can throw all the money in the world at a training, but it won't be worth anything if it's not interesting, enjoyable, and motivates officers to keep learning and follow up. Here, in SOFxLE attendees' own words, are some of the training's key benefits:

something for everyone
As the diversity of SOFxLE attendees' self-reported key takeaways reflects, this is not a one-size-fits-all training; officers connect with SOFxLE training on multiple levels, from the practical ("the science of adrenaline rush and how to overcome/deal with it" / "train BJJ and work on recovery"), to psychological ("We all go through trauma. There are positive ways to prepare yourself for it before it happens & after"), to philosophical ("If not me, then who?"). As one reviewer put it, "no one is above this training," and the course "should be made mandatory with annual refreshers."
