The classes are held Monday through Friday and attendance is mandatory on all days. Topics discussed include patrol procedures, presentations from various specialized units representing both agency’s, traffic enforcement and a basic overview of law enforcement in our region. The Sheriffs Office will also be hosting a tour of the two jails located in El Paso.
