TEXAS POLICE ASSOCIATION TRAINING

Thank you for your interest in Texas police Association training. Please know
that we stand ready to provide your agency with superior service with pride
and professionalism. We are offering training statewide and offer multiple
courses at your city. By offering courses at your location, we can minimize
total cost of training for agencies.

The Texas Police Association, organized in Fort Worth on March 6, 1895, is the
oldest law enforcement organization of its type in the state. Represented in
its membership are officers from municipal police departments, sheriff's
departments, constable's offices, the Department of Public Safety, federal
agencies, and others.

We are "Dedicated to Improving the Police Profession". Through training,
exchange of information, and various recognition programs, the Association
strives to upgrade the efficiency and professional status of all Texas law
enforcement officers.

TPA devotes a sizable amount of its resources to the sponsorship and support
of law enforcement training and education. It is the vehicle through which
many training programs are conducted each year. The programs cover a broad
spectrum of interest and need and include training in management,
supervision, and a large variety of specialized law enforcement skills. These
training programs are made possible by the careful expenditure of modest
registration fees.

As one of the sponsoring groups, TPA was influential in the adoption of the
statute, which created the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement Officer
Standards and Education (TCLEOSE).

The Texas Police Association is a tax-exempt organization as described in
Section 501(c)(3) of the federal income tax law.
