The Command Staff Leadership Series (CSLS) is designed to develop leadership skills and to build effective programs, policies and initiatives in law enforcement agencies. Patterned after the Texas Police Chief Leadership Series, this program offers the same professional development opportunities provided to Texas Police Chiefs and allows for the continuity of operations among leaders of individual departments. The program focuses on critical and common issues facing law enforcement.

Attending the CSLS provides command staff officers the opportunity to fulfill their continuing education requirements through TCOLE as set forth in The Education Code, Section 96.641. Officers who attend the CSLS are exempt from other continuing education requirements under Section 1701.351, Occupations Code, Subsection (d).
