This course meets Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE) requirements #2109Dynamic Police Training - Motel, Airport, Parking Lot and Parcel Interdiction Training - (January 27, 2025 8:00 am - 5:00 pm)
MAPP
Taught by Instructor Michael Vaccaro who is extremely knowledgeable and has an uncanny ability to communicate the exact steps to successful criminal encounters and investigations. The course will discuss and provide in-depth details on the common criminal trends and smuggling tactics used at these facilities and locations. The student will be educated on why and how drug trafficking organizations are exploiting major courier services to engage upon and operate their illegal businesses. Students will focus on how to initiate a thorough investigation at a hotel/motel, from establishing sources of information and common tactics to effecting an arrest and further court proceedings. If you have a hotel in your area, this is going to be a huge eye opener for you.
The parking lot interdiction portion of the program will give police officers perspective on how and what crime is being conducted in public parking lots designed to blend in with normal everyday society. Big box parking lots down to gas stations are hot spots for criminal activity and transactions. Vaccaro will walk students through a thorough look at what he and his team have been intercepting at major airports. Attendees will be shocked by the amount of contraband that is still being trafficked in commercial air travel.
This course will provide officers with the tools and available resources to establish their own parcel interdiction program. The amount of US currency being shipped through all major courier services is astounding. Simple techniques and investigations being used at locations like UPS store fronts have yielded extremely large seizures of contraband and confiscated US currency. The forfeited and seized monies can then be used to fund continued crime fighting efforts. Students will be provided with example search warrants to aid them in opening, searching, and seizing the parcel after probable cause has been established. Vaccaro provides detailed training, using many visual resources to ensure that the student has a very practical skillset to implement immediately. As always, the methodology is legal and utilized by law enforcement agencies throughout the United States. We will provide legal direction to ensure that the attendee has a very thorough understanding of law and case law compliance.NIST (National Insitute of Safety and Technology) Proctor - (February 3, 2025 8:00 am - 5:00 pm)
Proctor Certification: Train the Trainer
To further expand the reach of these critical training standards, LEDA has developed a "Train the Trainer" course. This program certifies Flight Skills Proctors, empowering them to run and certify pilots at their own agencies or in their regions. LEDA Proctors are trained to set up, run, grade, and upload test results to LEDA's comprehensive Flight Skills Database, ensuring a standardized and efficient process across the board.
The Proctor Course is an intensive, 8-hour training offered exclusively in conjunction with our major conferences. Given the limited seating, early registration is highly recommended. A separate ticket will be available on the event's registration page and each attendee will have to ADD that ticket to their registration, along with their conference registration.
Requirements for Proctors:
Must have passed Flight Skills 1 and Flight Skills 2 within the last six months (or pass them during the event).
Must successfully run both Flight Skills 1 and Flight Skills 2 at least twice for other student instructors or student pilots at the conference.
Must serve as a Flight Skills station operator for at least one hour during conference flight times.
The credential is valid for one year from the certification date and LEDA has the option to renew the credential based upon the amount of work the proctor put in that year in testing.
This program is a vital step in expanding LEDA’s reach, allowing agencies and organizations to train their pilots locally while adhering to LEDA's critical standards.
