We are proud to introduce a powerful initiative for 2025 - the "Sponsor an Officer" program. This unique offering provides a remarkable opportunity for individuals and organizations to give back and support law enforcement officers in their quest to receive life-saving training at the OTOA Tactical Operations and Public Safety Conference.
Why It Matters: Without this program's essential financial support, many officers would be unable to access the invaluable training needed to keep people safe. Training is often the first thing to suffer in budget cuts at law enforcement agencies nationwide. By sponsoring an officer, you can help bridge this gap and empower these dedicated professionals to serve their communities effectively.
Sponsor an officer for the full week of training, ensuring they gain the comprehensive skills and knowledge required for their crucial roles.
Sponsor an officer for the full week of training, including lodging. Providing officers with on-site accommodation at the event hotel enhances their training experience and creates additional opportunities for networking and learning.
Supporting Made Easy: Companies can sponsor an officer during the online vendor show registration. Alternatively, you can contact us directly at office@otoa.org to learn more and participate in this important initiative.
