In episode 03 of the "View from 100" podcast, Sheriff Jay Armbrister and guests Lt. Rich Qualls and Master Corrections Officer Kyle Appleby of the DGSO Training Division discuss the importance of training in law enforcement. 

They highlight the evolution of training methods, emphasizing the need for foundational skills and continuous education. The Douglas County Sheriff's Office has an eight-week corrections academy followed by eight weeks of on-the-job training for new corrections officers, which is the most extensive of its kind in the state. They also address the challenges of training young officers and the importance of mental health support, and the advantages of starting your law enforcement career in corrections. 

The conversation also touches on the agency's competitive pay package and recruitment strategies.
