Congratulations to the outstanding group of court security professionals who successfully completed the 40-Hour TCOLE Court Security Specialist Course held June 8–12, 2026, and hosted by the Boerne Police Department in Boerne, Texas.

A special thank you to Officer Christopher Dingman with Boerne P.D. and Nick Barsetti from the Texas Office of Court Administration's Court Security Division for taking the time to visit the class and discuss the valuable services and resources that OCA provides to courts and court security personnel.

Throughout the week, these students demonstrated professionalism, dedication, and a strong commitment to protecting our courts. They performed exceptionally well in both the classroom and practical exercises, successfully completing training in:

• Bailiff functions
• Security screening methods, and legal considerations
• Explosives recognition and awareness
• Court security technology
• Scenario-based training involving active shooter response and courtroom disruptions
• Hands-on live-fire range training conducted in simulated courtroom environments

It was an honor to spend the week with such a motivated group of professionals. Your hard work, participation, and performance throughout the course were impressive, and I have no doubt you will continue to make a positive impact in your courts and communities.

Stay safe, stay vigilant, and thank you for your commitment to court security.

We were honored to be invited by the SMU Police Department and the Texas Office of Court Administration to conduct a 40-Hour Court Security Officer Course on the SMU campus in Dallas.

Throughout the week, dedicated officers trained on the critical skills needed to keep our courts, judges, staff, and the public safe.

A huge thank you to the Combined Law Enforcement Associations of Texas (CLEAT) — the local representative even stepped up and provided lunch for the class. That kind of support for law enforcement training does not go unnoticed.

Great training, great partnerships, and a room full of professionals committed to protecting the justice system. 👊
