Attendees will also participate in a field event at the Bay Bridge Airport where they will have the opportunity to learn in a hands-on environment about the NIJ Aviation program and other exciting law enforcement technologies. The National Law Enforcement Institute focuses on the needs of agencies with 50 or more sworn officers.
