The Institute of Professional Development [IPD] was established to assist law enforcement officers in specialized training. The mission of IPD is to offer quality, specialized training at affordable rates to address current needs. Since 1995 IPD has trained law enforcement officers from all across the United States. These non-credit continuing education programs address a specific educational need which meet and exceed P.O.S.T. requirements and the guidelines as set by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. All schools are approved by P.O.S.T. and also qualify for Continuing Education Units (CEU) .

The higher the stamp of approval you can receive, the more recognition and credibility you can receive. Our court systems are intricately structured, operating upon strict adherence to Rules of Criminal Procedure and Rules of Evidence. The more complex the testimony required from you, the more credibility will have to be established through formal training and experience.
Credibility is received in two ways:
- Education - Must be quality education with a sufficient degree of credibility and must be professionally structured to address a specific area.
- Experience - Based on case work, number of years of work experience, and previous trial experience.
We would be happy to have you visit our campus and participate in the law enforcement training through IPD. The University of Tennessee at Martin has served our region for nearly 100 years, and part of its mission is to support lifelong learning through continuing education programs such as the Institute of Professional Development for law enforcement. UT Martin is located in Northwest Tennessee, about 125 miles northeast of Memphis and 150 miles northwest of Nashville, and within fifty miles of a number of the state's most famous recreation areas.

Contract Training
Contract Training-Training Customized for your agency
IPD is capable of providing training for your agency. We can develop a P.O.S.T. certified In-Service class or specialized training in many areas. In effect, if you have a training need we can research, design, and develop a training response to your need.
All of our scheduled course tuition charges are designed to cover our actual costs and provide the consumer with the highest quality training at a reasonable cost. The tuition fees shown on our scheduled listing of courses does not necessarily relate to the contract cost for any training you might choose. It is quite possible for an agency or organization to contract for a training course with IPD and then share the costs with other agencies. Our contract training brings the same expert instructors who teach IPD tuition based courses to your agency.
