#159 After Dark - Law Enforcement Training: Accountability, Quality & The Broken System w/ Rick Jacobs

Dela

In this episode, I sit down with Rick Jacobs, an instructional design expert with years of experience in law enforcement, the corporate world, and entrepreneurship. 

Rick has a deep understanding of how training programs are designed, delivered, and—more importantly—where they fall short. We dive into the problems with law enforcement training, from outdated POST standards to institutional roadblocks that prevent real progress.

Many officers and instructors agree that the system is broken, and today, Rick and I break down exactly why that is and what can be done about it.

Beyond law enforcement, this conversation applies to multiple industries—corporate training, leadership development, and private instruction. 

We explore validity, quality, and accountability in training programs, questioning what makes instruction truly effective and how organizations should measure success.
