PowerPoint for Public Safety
Featuring PowerPoint 2007!

For ten years, since 1999, Thomas M. Manson and Police Technical have trained American public safety personnel to better utilize Microsoft PowerPoint®.

The first version taught was PowerPoint® 97, since that time departments have migrated through many different versions before arriving at PowerPoint® 2007.

But no matter which version you may currently have on your laptop; there is almost certainly a better way to utilize the program. The course we have developed to assist personnel is called PowerPoint® for Public Safety™.

PowerPoint® for Public Safety™ has frequently featured several versions of the program in class. If you asked ten instructors which version of PowerPoint® they were currently using, you would likely get several different answers, some may be using one version of PowerPoint® at the office, while an entirely different version at home. This has been true since the beginning. It’s hard to keep up to date with software.

Currently PowerPoint® for Public Safety™ features PowerPoint® 2007. Entirely rewritten in XML the latest version of PowerPoint® includes several features which make it ideal for creating and presenting material to a public safety audience.

Among the best new features are:

Improved encryption to “lock” presentations
SmartArt graphics add new ways to present empirical and process data
A new toolbar system purports to save development time by placing the most frequently used toolbars and buttons closer to the user’s mouse

We would like to help your personnel become more proficient with PowerPoint®. If you are interested in purchasing this course for your agency or department or would like to talk about hosting a class for surrounding agencies please contact us.

In 2009, Police Technical Inc was recognized as a "Sole Source Provider" for "PowerPoint® for Public Safety™" by the US Border Patrol.

There are many users of PowerPoint® software, and many schools and universities offer general PowerPoint® training. But when you want PowerPoint® training specifically geared towards the public safety market there is only one provider who has meet the standard to be eligible to be recognized as a sole source provider, Police Technical Inc.

In mid 2007 Police Technical Inc began a process of training Federal law enforcement agencies. During the contract process each agency had to determine what other companies, if any, provided similar training services.

Police Technical Inc was required to provide documentation about training sessions and contracts for the past several years to prove eligibility. After reviewing the materials submitted, along with a list of other PowerPoint® training vendors it was determined that Police Technical Inc’s “PowerPoint® for Public Safety™” was a uniquely designed course specifically created for public safety and entitled Police Technical Inc as a Sole Source Provider.

Police Technical Inc is pleased to have achieved this level of success with our training and will continue to pursue further government contracts.
