We are ending 2024 and ready to embrace 2025. 

Recently as the elections took place, lot of family members and friends were against each other's choices.  That is what democracy is. Folks make their choice. We all have a difference of opinions, but it should never come in between family and friends.  This is my first time seeing way too much animosity, dislike and anger directed towards family members and friends.  At the end of the day the family and friends need to stay together.  As holiday dinners and get-togethers take place, leave the dangerous politics out of the picture. Politicians are there for their own benefits. They come and go.   Enjoy the family and make better memories rather than anger and hatred and disappointments.  I personally cannot stand families and friends breaking up over the politics.  PLEASE!

   The NJNEOA is committed to exemplary training and will continue to offer that to our attendees. Reputable instructors from local, county, state and federal agencies have continuously instructed on behalf of the NJNEOA.

  Our most popular training - the six-day Basic TNT will now be known as Narcotic and Criminal Enforcement Training - NCET.  Although this course was designed for law enforcement officers working in 'drug' enforcement, the content of this course is for all law enforcement.  The instructors share their knowledge, experience and expertise with the students.  This course consists of Search and Seizure, CI Management, Operations Planning, Drug Recognition, Courtroom Testimony, Marijuana Grow Operations, Cell Phone Evidence, Money Laundering, Investigative Toolbox, Clandestine labs, Crypto Currency, Gangs and Social Media and Types of Surveillance. In addition, practical scenarios/exercises related to undercover buys are also part of this course. This course is designed for patrol officers, detectives and supervisors to learn cur

    Our three-day Advanced course provides you with knowledge of Pen Registers, Title III Investigations, GPS Trackers, Drones in Law Enforcement, Ghost Guns Investigations, Connected Cars, CDRS, Cell Sites and Geolocations, Current Drug Trends and Current Search and Seizure and Case Laws. In addition, a block on Ethics and Corruption in Policing also makes the students aware of ethical issues and corruption in law enforcement.  This block is about policing ourselves so the public can have faith in our policing. I built my reputation with the prosecutors, defense attorneys and the judges. This reputation was about my honesty, integrity and legal education!  It goes a long way in law enforcement and legal community. Today's policing is a little harder as no one believes law enforcement unless it is on audio or video. Yes, you have a harder job and challenges then what I faced in my career. So, get better educated in all aspects of law enforcement.

   So, these nine days will provide you with the much-needed information and education in law enforcement whether you are assigned to patrol or a specialized unit.  I am requesting all supervisors to attend these two trainings, and I guarantee you will be satisfied!

      Recently, someone said to me that since the officer had already attended a particular training, he didn't need to attend the six-day course. I can guarantee that both these trainings are different.   REMEMBER, the better trained you are, the better you will be at your 'job' and in the COURTROOM! I can guarantee you that no one knows everything.

     The mindset that one knows everything is just arrogancy.  Training must be continuous and current!

    Wishing you all HAPPY HOLIDAYS and for some, the holidays may get depressing and, on that note, please reach out to COP2COP if you need to speak to someone in confidence.  As I have mentioned in the past, I have had to reach out to them many years ago when I had a rough patch in my life.  We all need help sometimes.  

      STAY WELL and STAY SAFE mentally and physically and make 2025 a better year!
