вЂњThis training tool will allow members of the Erie Police Department to train at any given time or day, and at our own facility, to ensure officers are prepared to make split-second use-of-force decisions and practice de-escalation techniques,вЂќ said Police Sgt. The Erie Police Department was gifted new training technology, which will help train officers in marksmanship, as well as de-escalation techniques.

Brittany Wilson, an Erie police officer, uses the new simulator on Tuesday. In a virtual scenario, officers can practice communication, de-escalation and problem solving all while keeping citizens and bystanders safe. Ti Training, a law enforcement training technology company based in Golden, has donated a $50,000 training simulator to the Erie Police Department in order to give officers exposure to a multitude of scenarios and relevant training schemes. The Erie Police Department will soon be using one of these technologies via exclusive virtual reality training software, according to the Town of Erie. In order to create a safe space for officers to train and learn from mistakes, several police departments around the country have adopted new technologies to help provide a safe space for officers to learn. In recent years, the call for police reform has led to a need for more refined police training systems.
