Benchmark Professional Seminars would like to meet your training needs. We offer the ability to receive high-quality training from subject matter experts in multiple public safety fields. This training is free to agencies that agree to host our seminars. We are a proven Public Safety Training Agency and conduct courses and seminars throughout the United States.

We would like to bring the seminars that you find most valuable to your location. As a host agency, you would receive five free slots in each hosted class, and for every block of 10 paid students, you will receive an additional two free slots. The COVID-19 pandemic, loss of personnel, recruiting shortages, and civil unrest have significantly impacted training, increasing pressure on everyone in Public Safety. As we emerge from these latest challenges, we want to be there to help fill your training void.

Our business model is simple.

You host the class. We provide the instructors, training materials, social media promotion, web, and direct advertisement

The tuition pays for the instructors to travel to your region. Instead of having the costly travel expense and per diem, you can receive more value for your training dollar. Agencies within your region can take advantage of the training by not having to incur travel expenses for their personnel. We, in turn, do not have to encumber the expense of a training facility. Our most significant cost is for our instructors. This way, we can hire quality instructors and bring them to you cheaper than you could send your employees to train.

We offer several seminars ranging from one-day courses to intense, technical, and skilled 5-day courses. We also have several of our instructors and course developers who may be able to meet specific course needs on request. We include a sampling of available course titles. Please take a minute to examine our web page, our Facebook page, or our LinkedIn page. We hope to hear from you.
