AJA members receive a 5% discount on any initial subscription to a Police Legal Sciences (PLS) Jail Pro 12-Hour Package. PLS Jail Pro online reality-based training is designed to strengthen the ability of correctional officers to make effective decisions. This continuing education program uses the most recent and relevant federal court decisions to address the liability issues raised by jail inmates in lawsuits against jail officials (jailers, correctional officers, sheriffs, administrators, and others).
PLS Online Jail Pro Lessons are designed to:
- Reduce the number of civil lawsuits brought by inmates and the size of settlements against jailers, jail supervisors, correctional officers, and counties.
- Reduce turnover by improving confident and effective decision making.
- Reinforce correctional officer, jailer, and jail supervisor classroom training and supplement agency specific practices.
- Help jailers, jail supervisors, and correctional officers develop a significant understanding of the most current and relevant court rulings about jail operations so they can align their future conduct to conform with those decisions.
- Strengthen jailer and correctional officer critical thinking skills by generating dialogue, debate, and discussion with their peers and supervisors about how they would have handled specific aspects of a case analyzed in a PLS lesson.
- Demonstrate which specific actions, policies, and practices at a jail create the most liability exposure, and how to bring those practices into compliance with the law.
- Build respect and understanding for the law.
Using actual court cases where jailers, jail supervisors, and correctional officers were sued, these are lessons you don't want to miss out on.
