The Street Smarts virtual reality training equipment is an innovative program designed to provide immersive scenario-based law enforcement training that significantly enhances decision-making and response skills. This advanced technology provides realistic customizable scenarios that enable deputies and supervisors to practice and refine their techniques in a safe, controlled environment, ultimately improving their preparedness for real-world situations.
The Washington Counties Risk Pool has purchased two systems that are available for loan to our member agencies. System 1 is located on the westside of the State and System 2 is located on the eastside of the State. These cutting-edge tools allow law enforcement personnel to engage in hands-on training, helping them to develop critical skills in areas such as crisis negotiation, use of force decision-making, and situational awareness.
By incorporating this innovative training into your agency’s development programs, you can foster a culture of continuous improvement and ensure that your team is equipped to handle the challenges they may face on the job. We encourage all member agencies to take advantage of this valuable resource and elevate their training efforts.
