Officer Safety is a priority of Nebraska State Probation. We accomplish this through an initial training for new officers, accompanied by periodic follow-up training within the field.
Probation officers within the Nebraska Probation System participate in 40 hours of officer safety training. This includes officer awareness, office safety, de-escalation, handcuffing, home visits, search and seizure, OC (oleoresin capsicum) or pepper spray, and escape and evasion.
