The ALERRT (Advanced Law Enforcement Rapid Response Training) mandate, established under SB1852, requires Texas officers to complete 16 hours of life-saving active shooter response training. For training coordinators overseeing compliance, managing training records can become a daunting, time-consuming burden. To address this challenge, American Police Training LLC has created an innovative solution to streamline the process, increasing efficiency while ensuring precision.
American Police Training LLC has developed a program that automates the process of tracking ALERRT training completion. The tool analyzes data from the All Training Unit Report generated in TCLEDDS (Texas Commission on Law Enforcement Data Distribution System). By uploading the CSV file, training coordinators can generate a detailed report listing each officer's ALERRT training hours, allowing them to quickly determine compliance with the 16-hour requirement.
This program has already demonstrated tremendous success. A training specialist with the Texas Department of Public Safety used it to produce a thorough report for over 4,000 commissioned officers in less than five minutes. This efficiency not only saved considerable time but also showcased the tool's ability to handle large-scale operations seamlessly.
While the ALERRT program addresses a critical need, American Police Training LLC doesn’t stop there. We recognize that every law enforcement agency has unique training requirements, many of which are tied to specific departmental mandates. For this reason, we offer customized solutions to help agencies track various training programs, such as tire deflation tactics, TASER certification, Use of Force procedures, SFSTs, and RADAR/LIDAR operations.
Our team can create tailored programs to meet your agency's needs, ensuring compliance with these essential mandates. Just like the ALERRT program, these customizable tools simplify the tracking process, reduce administrative workload, and enhance operational efficiency.
By automating complex and time-consuming tasks, programs like these allow training coordinators to focus on strategic priorities rather than administrative documentation. Accurate tracking ensures compliance, minimizes the risk of oversight, and provides peace of mind, knowing that your officers are prepared for the critical missions they will face.
Whether your agency manages a small team or oversees thousands of officers, our solutions are scalable, flexible, and designed to adapt to your department's goals. American Police Training's tools ensure streamlined workflows, helping you maintain readiness without unnecessary strain on your resources.
