Hostage Negotiations One of the articles researched discussed the use of role playing in hostage negotiations training.
Crisis Intervention Team The last article researched involved Crisis Intervention training, which again was role playing reliant.
What do you think? As a practitioner, it’s easy to lose sight of other alternatives. So I ask you: “What other ways could we use games or simulations to improve the overall law enforcement training environment or program?”
