Training

We align our training with the university's vision and values. Humboldt is committed to student success. UPD officers are minimally required to complete 44 hours of POST training every two years. At UPD, we go above and beyond the state required minimum hours. We balance our investment of time, energy, and funds in important topics such as firearms or the use of force with topics related to procedural justice. Examples include Diversity Equity and Inclusion training facilitated by ODEI, ongoing training facilitated by the North Coast Rape Crisis Team, De-escalation and Reasonable Use of Force, Crisis Intervention Training, and Bias Awareness in Policing.
