Incident Response with UAS Integration
with Jack Hedges
KSP Sworn Only.
Note to Registrants: This is a combined course. Sept. 21-22 will be KY Emergency Managements "Lost Person Behavior" course (16 KLEC Hours); Sept. 23-25 will be KSPs "Incident Response with UAS Integration" (24 KLEC Hours). Upon Registering, students will be required to attend both courses (40 KLEC Hours). Students cannot claim KLEC credit if they have already taken the same course within a 3-year period.
This 40 hour course will teach students the topics of Lost Person Behavior and the integration of drone technology with law enforcement incidents.
Each student will receive training in UAS operations. Students will be given a mulitiple-choice exam and be required to pass a practical evaluation. Upon successful completion of the exam and practical evaluation, students will be certified to operation drones for KSP incidents.
Required Equipment:
- Each student should coordinate with their respective Posts to bring their agency drone for the certification day (no personal drones).
- Appropriate attire for outdoor activities (hiking shoes, rain jacket, etc.).
- Portable radio w/ lapel mic.
- MDT with charger.
Primary Instructor: Sgt. Jack Hedges
Assistant Instructor: Ofc. Anthony Blakemore
KLEC #: 2770-25K (Incident Response with UAS Integration)
Sergeant's Academy
with Jamie Smith
This course was developed to assist newly promoted line-level supervisors in transitioning into their new positions. The students are provided instruction pertaining to administrative and operational procedures their new assignment will require. Additionally, students will receive instruction in leadership, ethical decision-making, and supervisor liability.

Event Data Recorder Use In Traffic Crash Reconstruction - Level II
with Hunter Martin
This course builds upon IPTM’s Event Data Recorder (EDR) Use in Traffic Crash Reconstruction - Level I by teaching you how to apply mathematical concepts to your EDR-based reconstructions.
We will begin by reviewing the math and physics concepts necessary to analyze EDR data in more complex non-central collisions. Topics such as the Law of Cosines; the Law of Sines; momentum; closing velocity; and change in velocity relationships will be discussed in detail. You will learn how each of these can be used in your reconstruction.
Actual EDR reports from a variety of collisions will be utilized to show you how to determine all the values necessary for a complete reconstruction. Projects and problem sets have been designed to reinforce the materials presented during lectures and will provide you with the tools you will need to complete actual reconstructions.
Law enforcement and private traffic crash investigators, insurance fraud special investigators and claims adjusters, engineers1, attorneys, safety officers, military investigative personnel, collision animation and simulation graphics users
1Note to engineers: The first day is a review of trigonometry, which may not be necessary for engineers. Please contact instructor Andy Rich at arich@IPTM.org for more information.
40 hours
You must have successfully completed IPTM’s Event Data Recorder Use in Traffic Crash Reconstruction - Level I and Traffic Crash Reconstruction courses or their equivalent. If you do not have a strong math and physics background, we highly recommend attending IPTM's 16-hour Re-Introduction to Math and Physics (Online) course.
Managing a Difficult Individual: A Legal and Tactical Approach
