Laser (LIDAR) Speed Enforcement
Operator Certification Course
This course will be modified to the
level of expertise in the audience and can be adapted in the classroom for
multiple levels of experience and understanding. This class can be further
broken down into two classes should the need arise.
Training Goals and Objectives
The goal of this (3) three-day,
24-hour operator certification course is to produce a certified LIDAR
Laser Operator with knowledge, skills and abilities when using a Laser
Speed enforcement device. This class will provide participants with the
materials, practical training and knowledge to use law enforcement LIDAR
Laser speed measurement enforcement devices.
Training Audience, Format and
Content
This course is intended for various
levels of law enforcement officers who are interested in utilizing laser
speed enforcement devices. This course is designed to consist of both
classroom lectures and field practical work with laser speed enforcement
devices. This class normally operates on an 8-hour, 3-day time slot from
0830 hours to 1630 hours, but can be both modified and extended if needed.
This class works best when the student population is under 25
participants, but can extend to a maximum of 40 students.

Limitations / Special Needs:
None
Any audio/visual or POSTC/Academy
facility or staff needs will be addressed on a case-by-case basis, but
might include the use of an electronic projection unit, audio and numerous
types of laser speed enforcement devices.
Student Materials
Student materials will involve
copies of the handout “Laser (LIDAR) Speed Enforcement Operator Manual” as
well as a CD-ROM.
A wide range of digital video and
PowerPoint presentations will be used in the training session, and the
instructor will come prepared with everything he will need to make this an
informative, fast-paced learning experience.
Detailed lesson plans are available
as needed and copies of the Power Point presentations will be provided to
each student on a CD-ROM for their future use. Copies of the PowerPoint
presentations and digital videos cannot be supplied with this document.
Evaluations of Past Courses
Evaluations of past presentations are
available upon request if this material and telephonic interviews are not
satisfactory. In addition, we are happy to provide the names of references
from all across America to assist you in your decision.
