Host a School

Hosting a CMI class is easy and saves your agency money. Our experienced and dedicated staff will take care of all the administrative functions related to your school including registrations and payments. You simply provide the training facilities in return for free slot(s) to the school, and we do all the work!

CMI training courses are hosted by law enforcement agencies nationwide. Hosting a CMI course has more benefits than just the free slots. In addition, you also get to pick the dates that work best for your agencies schedule and you can request what instructors you would like to have teach your course. We do our very best to accommodate the training dates and instructor requests, both of which are dictated by availability and on a first come, first served basis.

Host organizations partnering with CMI receive one (1) free slot for every ten (10) paying students (20 paying = 2 free slots, etc.) In return, CMI uses the host’s facilities to execute the school (at no cost to CMI).

If the school is open to LEO's from outside the hosts organization, CMI will assist the host organization in the national marketing of their school while the host promotes the training program locally. We recommend schools be scheduled at least 5-months in advance to ensure there is ample time to market. Thirty days prior to the start of any course a minimum of 10 paying students must be registered or the course is subject to cancellation. Therefore, the marketing efforts of the host are critical to ensuring the program is conducted.

CMI is also happy to conduct closed training events that are only open to our host’s employees or guests. These courses require no marketing by the host and can be coordinated with CMI very quickly.

To host any of our training programs download our Host Agency REQUEST and return it to us with the dates and instructor(s) desired. Our staff will respond to you on the next business day.
