This is a Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE) Cultural Challenges Among Generations online training course offered  for Texas Peace Officers, Jailers, and Telecommunicators.

Every generation is influenced by the economic, political, and social events of their respective eras. From the Great Depression to the civil rights movement, from the inception of the television to advanced computer technologies, all have affected they way we work, play, and live. Understanding the differences among the generations can be helpful to officers.

A generation is a group of people within a society delineated by age boundaries. Researchers refer to this as a generational cohort, defining these as a set of peers, rather than a specific family generation. People in a cohort share similar experiences, values, and attitudes. These carry over from the formative years to work-related issues.

Please note, the entire course final exam(s), and course evaluation(s) must be completed in order to receive one (1) hour of course credit.
