EXPERTISE
International Police College of Canada (IPCC), with its
International Head Office in Winnipeg, Canada, is an organization
dedicated to provide the highest quality, professional training to
police agencies throughout the World.
Why is IPCC headquartered in Canada?
A law enforcement expert with the United Nations stated that the
Canadian police are the best trained and most professional that he
had encountered anywhere.
Canada's criminal justice system gives priority, some say, to the
rights of criminals who have broken the law over the safety and
security of the general public. Persons who are convicted of
criminal offences, even violent offences, are only incarcerated as a
last resort, and when they are sentenced to prison, it is only for a
relatively short time.
Despite a legal system that provides little support to its law
enforcers, Canadian police have one of the highest crime solved
rates in the World. Although criminals are released to prey upon the
citizens over and over again, the Canadian police are successful in
apprehending them over and over again. Canadian Police have had to
develop tremendous skills in order to cope with the legal obstacles
within the criminal justice system.

Where do I attend classes at IPCC?
IPCC is a mobile educational institution. Instead of
students going to Canada to train at great expense, we bring our
expert instructors to you. It is much more economical to have an
IPCC instructor come to you and train 20 or 30 officers, than
for you to send one officer to Canada, or anywhere else, for the
same instruction.
Who are the IPCC instructors?
Most of the IPCC instructors are Canadians, although we
have both British and American instructors on our instructor roll.
IPCC uses both current and retired law enforcement
instructors, however retired officers are generally preferred due to
their availability. Many expert police instructors retire from the
police to become private consultants or law enforcement instructors
at various colleges.
The criteria to be an IPCC instructor is not whether a
person is a current police officer or retired, it only matters if
they have the expertise and experience required.
Instructors who teach courses that are not specifically police or
law enforcement subjects are generally highly qualified educators
with advanced university degrees in their area of
specialization....several hold PhD's. Instructors who teach Human
Relations, Sociology or Hostage Negotiation, for example, would fall
into this category.
What type of training does IPCC offer?
IPCC can provide expert instructors on any police related
subject. Please provide specific details of your requirements to the
IPC representative.
IPCC Courses are divided into four levels...Basic,
Intermediate and Advanced Police Operations Courses, plus Highly
Specialized Law Enforcement Courses. Please see the attached pages
for examples of courses available and details of who is qualified to
enroll in each type of course.
When are the IPCC courses available?
IPCC will work with the various police organizations to
provide training at a mutually convenient time for both parties. We
will work diligently to ensure the best qualified instructors will
be available to provide top quality instruction.
What are the requirements of a client organization?
The client organization will be required to provide:
a) Accommodation...Minimum standard: 3-Star hotel or equivalent
facility
b) Classroom facility with adequate equipment, i.e. overhead
projector, whiteboard or chalkboard, TV-VCR of local electronics
that can play NTSC videotape.
c) Transportation from the accommodation facility to the
training facility.
d) Interpreter if persons attending class do not speak
English.
Class Size
Ideal class size is 10 officers, however, 20 officers can usually
be accommodated for most courses.
