Join the 2025 AELE Force Management seminar on May 5-8, 2025, in Las Vegas. You’ll learn how to improve your decision-making, protect your career, and save lives. You’ll also stay on top of the latest use-of-force case law, real-world incident reviews, policy suggestions, and investigation strategies for your law enforcement agency or legal practice.
 
​This practical, timely, and topical seminar is instructed and facilitated by an invitation-only community of legal and law enforcement experts who, “Talk the talk and walk the walk.” One or two people cannot have the required breadth and depth of these AELE presenters, who dovetail and share their experiences from both large and smaller agencies scattered across the United States. Back at your agencies, you can share what you have learned from these informed presenters, and from other attendees who often share their experiences during the seminar, during lunch, and after hours, making this one of your best educational and networking experiences.
 
​IN-PERSON seminar attendance is limited, so reserve your seat today! As part of your tuition, you’ll get to enjoy delicious lunches on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. The Force Management seminar wraps up at Noon on Thursday, giving you enough time to explore the amazing Las Vegas Strip, or to catch a flight back home at your own pace. You’ll be ready to apply the valuable skills and insights you’ve gained from the AELE Force Management seminar​.
