Description

This course examines how conflict management skills could be used in the field of law enforcement to mitigate conflict escalation. Conflict Management theories and techniques have long been used as the foundation of negotiations and international diplomacy on a macro level. This class offers ways in which these same skills can be applied to micro situations. People working in law enforcement must have the ability to interact with political figures, administration, supervisions, subordinates, and the community. Officers with knowledge of conflict management would be more effective in communicating with people from across the community and with interagency situations.
