On January
11, 1999, the North Coast Polytechnic Institute (NCPI) began operations
to provide training to law enforcement officers and law enforcement
agencies. There is a need within the law enforcement sector to provide EFFECTIVE, AFFORDABLE, and PROFESSIONAL
training that is meaningful and professionally taught. NCPI will
bring any of these training programs to your agency. The host agency
must locate a training facility to host the school. Discounted rates
will be available to the host agency.

Good News. OPOTA has approved 24 hours of CPT for my 3 week Police Executive and Administrative Leadership School (PEALS) that will be hosted by the Parma PD. So, every officer who attends PEALS will receive a CPT certificate for 24 hours. As a reminder though, every officer in Ohio must still attend the 8 hour "Mandatory" CPT training day. So, CPT reimbursement for any officer attending PEALS will amount to a total of 32 hours reimbursement for your agency.
OPOTA has approved 11 of my lesson plans for this year's CPT; one more is pending. I plan to post dates and locations of all of my CPT schools the week of Feb 9th on my web site. So, information on the 2026 CPT will be posted soon. Call if interested in hosting...
As all of you know, OPOTA has once again required 24 hours of Continuing Professional Training (CPT) for Ohio LE officers. The OPOTC Commission has identified eight (8) hours of "mandatory" training with the remaing sixteen (16) hours of "optional" training topics that must be pre-approved by OPOTA. My lesson plans for the optional training will be submitted to OPOTA for pre-approval. In 2026, NCPI is planning to offer the following 24 hours of training at many different training locations as in the past:
Day One - 8 hours - Optional training topics with Four (4) hours on Legal Aspects of Confessions and Four (4) hours on Civil Liability with emphasis on motor vehicle related issues, illegal arr est/search and failure to train.
Day Two - 8 hours - Optional training topics with Two (2) hours on Evidence Handling Issues; Two (2) hours on Mental Health Awareness; One (1) hour on Officer Safety - Distractions that affect Safety; One (1) hour on Public Video and Audio Recording of Cops; and Two (2) hours on Impacts of Women in Policing on Female Offenders/Victims.
Day Three - 8 hours (Mandatory OPOTA training topics) - Two (2) hours on Legal Updates; One (1) hour on Missing Persons; Two (2) hours on Communications; Two (2) hours on Compliance and Control Tactics; and One (1) hour on Firearms.
I am beginning to schedule CPT training at various departments. As in the past, you can "Pick and Choose" between attending 3 day schools or individual days of training based on your departmental needs. See Tuition and Discounts listed below.
"Individual Day": 1-10 officers = $90 each day; 11-20 officers = $85.00 each day; 21 or more officers = $80 each day
3-Day School: 1-10 officers $270 all 3 days; 11-20 officers = $255 all 3 days; 21 or more officers = $240 all 3 days
