BECOME A HOST SITE

We believe in bringing training to as many different regions of the United States as possible. In order to bring the best training possible to your region, we rely on host sites such as yours to work with The Results Group, Ltd. in putting the program together. Our host sites are invaluable in making the training a successful and fulfilling experience for all our clients.

We are honored that law enforcement agencies and universities throughout our current service area have supported L.E.A.D. Academy worksessions. We are currently seeking additional host sites in the Great Lakes area, the East Coast, the Southwest and in the South.

Benefits To Your Agency

As a L.E.A.D. Host Site, your agency can benefit in a number of ways, including:

1. One free slot in all training classes for every 10 paid registrations we receive
2. Discounts on selected training programs for multiple registrations from your agency;
3. Bring customized, professional training directly to your agency; savings on travel, per diem, overtime;
4. Position your agency as a leader in professional training for your region;
5. Promote your agency in the community (we will provide you with a press release you can send out about each class we hold at your agency);
6. Foster inter-agency cooperation by participating in training with other agencies in your region.

As a L.E.A.D. host site, we ask that you work with us on the following items:

• Implement your portions of the marketing program as outlined below, including a personal letter to surrounding agencies, teletypes, fax broadcasts and selected phone calls and/or presentations on training opportunities.
• Provide a training facility capable of seating up to 40 people at one time; ensure the facility is set up according to the training needs prior to the class.
• Provide audio/visual equipment and supplies, including a white board, easel and flip chart and overhead projector or Powerpoint/computer capabilities for selected classes.
• Provide refreshments for each morning of the scheduled classes (coffee and donuts is acceptable) The Results Group, Ltd. will provide your agency with our custom roasted “Results Blend” coffee at the start of the class.
  

Marketing and Promotion of Academies

In order to make any L.E.A.D. program a success, we require a minimum of 20 registrations in order to proceed with the class. A class size of 25 to 40 participants is ideal. Marketing and promotion of the value of the selected training programs is a key to ensuring this success and a valuable training experience for everyone involved.

For any one program, we ask that the host site follow the marketing and promotional steps listed below: Two to Three months prior to training program:

• Send out a personal letter from your training officer or senior leader inviting surrounding agencies to participate in the program. Include a copy of the training syllabus and description.
• Develop a list of possible interested agencies in the surrounding area.
• Place the training program on any web sites you have access to through your department.
• Present the opportunity to any regional training groups in your area and/or at command staff or inter-agency meetings.
• Conduct fax broadcasts or send out teletypes to surrounding agencies at least every two weeks.
• Contact the regional training coordinator for CJTC, DPSST or POST to request that the class be listed on the state agency’s web site.
  

In addition to these steps, The Results Group, Ltd. will complete the following marketing steps:

1. Personal invitations out to surrounding agencies by email - especially to those who have previously attended one or more of our Academies.
2. Send electronic flyer out to surrounding agencies.
3. Follow up calls to agencies.
4. Last chance email out to surrounding agencies.
