Officers to Train with Interactive Virtual Experience Program
NEW JERSEY:Under commission by the State of New Jersey, Maryland-based PSComm, LLC and WILL Interactive, Inc. have created “The Call”, an educational anti-bias program to help New Jersey police officers improve their critical thinking and decision making skills.
New Jersey State Police selected the patented digital program (Virtual Experience Immersive Learning Simulations VEILS®), developed by WILL Interactive, to allow officers to assume roles in real-life law enforcement situations. The particular VEILS® system provides research-based live action, full-motion video to train the officers in recognizing the biases that all human beings have, searching for ways those biases may affect law enforcement decision making processes, and allowing them to experience the consequences of their decisions as they would play out in real life.
