Dear Mr. Brooks,

On behalf of the Colorado Peace Officer Standard and Training (POST) Board, I thank you for applying to serve on the POST Academy Redesign Project as a member of our Curriculum Development Team (CDT). Your application was reviewed by members of the POST staff, and I am writing to formally appoint you to the CDT. The POST staff and I were all impressed with your expertise and dedication to improving law enforcement education and believe your work on the CDT will be critical to ensuring we together develop an updated Law Enforcement Training Academy (LETA) curriculum that will ensure cadets have the knowledge, mindsets, motivations, and skills they need to succeed as entry-level Colorado peace officers. The work of the CDT will be invaluable to the POST Board and peace officers throughout our state. The POST team will be reaching out soon with details about the first meeting, expectations, and process. Thank you for your application and commitment to be a devoted member of the team and for your dedication to law enforcement training. Please contact our POST Academy Curriculum Developer Gwen Burke at gwen.burke@coag.gov for questions and assistance.

Sincerely,

Philip J. Weiser Colorado Attorney General
