Following a review of the mission and values of the OPCLEE, which involve increasing the professional capacities of law enforcement officers through training and education, the report presents the background of the Police Corp and offers an overview of Police Corp activities for calendar year 2000. The Police Corp was created in 1994 with a mandate to address violent crime by assisting State and local law enforcement agencies to increase the education and training of their officers. During calendar year 2000, the Police Corp experienced growth with the addition of 4 States, bringing the number of Police Corp program participating States up to 30. The training activities of the Police Corp during 2000 continued to focus on leadership, communications, problem-solving in multicultural settings, race relations, youth relations, ethics, use of discretion, character, and use of force. Highlights of Police Corp programs in 13 States are described, including Illinois’ 160-hour Arrest and Control Tactics Course and Kentucky’s project involving disadvantaged youth from local agencies. Police Corp 2001 priorities are presented and include the development of a technical assistance capacity, the full utilization of State advisory groups, and the development of a Management Information System for the national office. Two national conferences are planned for 2001, taking place in Salt Lake City, UT, in April and in Washington, DC, in the Fall. Future directions for the Police Corp include the development of a national directory of law enforcement career academies and the development of a self-assessment training checklist that will provide greater uniformity in the review of States’ proposed training curricula.
