THE EXPERIENCE

Being a Gang Specialist is no longer a "Gang Enforcement Only" speciality. The 2011 National Gang Threat Assessment estimated 33,000 gangs representing some 1.4 million “documented” gang members were reported by law enforcement agencies in the United States; up from 1.0 million gang members representing 20,000 gangs in 2009. Gangs can now be identified in all 50 states and D.C. with a national average of 48% of all violent crime being attributed to criminal street gangs with that percentage reaching as high as 90% in several cities nationwide.

All officers need to become gang specialist and able to identify a gang threat in real-time for any gang reduction strategy to be successful not to mention it is imperative for officer and public safety that you be trained, prepared and equipped to be on the front lines as you very well may make initial contact with a gang member long before the Gang Unit is called. In fact, most initial contacts will happen by road patrol, school resource officers, or narcotic and homicide detectives and not a Gang Enforcement Investigator.

​Today, larger OMGs have established new chapters and have attracted many new members. The surge in membership has incited clashes for geographic dominance, which has created higher levels of violence and continue to engage in all types of violent crimes to include: weapons possession, threats and intimidation, assault, arson, extortion, and drug trafficking and in today's volatile world; law enforcement are being targeted by groups like the New Black Panther Party who, over the last few years, called for attacks on law enforcement and street gangs issuing direct threats around the nation.

​In the 2015 National Gang Threat Report, one third (1/3) of the jurisdictions report an increase in threats to law enforcement and "the attacks that were carried out against law enforcement and judicial officials over the past two years were violent and brazen" are you prepared? Is your team prepared? Is your agency prepared?

However, you are not required to access them each day; as long as they are all accessed by Saturday at midnight; again so you are able to do it on your own time.
  • Every Week - You will have a weekly quiz that is due by Saturday at midnight.
  • Saturday of Week 8: You will be given access to the final exam and given 24 hours to complete it.
  • It's that easy!
