Testifying on an OWI case can be a daunting experience, especially if it’s your first time. This training aims to help officers prepare for court, whether it’s their first or 20th time. Topics that will be covered in this one-day training include Standardized Field Sobriety Tests and how to educate a jury about them, how to handle common OWI defense challenges on the stand, and the do’s and don’ts of cross examination. Participants will also get an opportunity to practice testifying based on a prior investigation they did. Seasoned OWI prosecutors will provide feedback.
