Through practical examples and guided discussion, the workshop highlights policy alignment, training enhancements, and leadership strategies that reinforce individual and organizational accountability. Participants will also review best practices in investigative techniques and supervisory oversight that help prevent misconduct and reduce the likelihood of civilian complaints.
