Topics to be addressed in this program include: - Establishing a framework for cultural competency in order to identify personal stages of development - Recognizing cultural competency as a skill to be developed - Cultural competency as a means for increased understanding, improved communication, and effective interaction with people across cultures - Communicating effectively and teaching these skills to others This class has been certified by the Illinois Law Enforcement Training and Standards Board.
