 OACP Training Center

The OACP training center provides recorded training from our conferences and other sources to help OACP members and their agencies meet training requirements. The presentations are free of charge for OACP Member Agencies, and the training hours can be submitted to DPSST for training credit. 

 To access training:

  • Log in to the OACP Members Only Area
  • Click on Training on the upper blue ribbon and you’ll be redirected to the training platform
  • Click on any of the F6 training packages to see all the videos associated with that category. We have also created packages for various conferences with all the available training videos from that conference.

You can also click on Search Course List at the top of the page and enter a presenter’s name, title of a presentation, or key word. This will generate all the available courses with that criteria. You can then choose that course from the list in the F6 package. 

 Member Agency Key Contacts can forward a video to any person in their agency by simply copying the url and providing the password. 

In the coming weeks, we'll continue highlighting various videos that we think might benefit you or other agency members. Be sure to check out the "Training Corner" in upcoming Weekly Update newsletters. We hope this adds tremendous value to your OACP membership.
