The Georgia Peace Officer Standards & Training Council is pleased to announce the launching of a new POST Online Training platform. This free online training is available to all POST-certified officers who have a valid OKey and are in good standing.
POST Online Training provides both on-demand courses for individual students and resources for POST-certified instructors.
Currently, the platform offers the two newest Governor’s Initiative courses: Human Trafficking and Gang Awareness. These courses are now yearly requirements for all POST-certified officers.
New courses will be announced through the Georgia POST website (gapost.org).
