Our job is to put tools in your toolbox
tools that get the job done. We develop and refine those tools based on their actual efficacy, rather than upon any adherence to any specific dogma or fashionable doctrine.
Limit your liability
First Amendment Auditing has grown into a cottage industry. Lawsuits stemming from the violation of auditors’ Constitutional rights are routinely resulting in costly settlements and judgments. Our training is designed to limit this risk.
Establish Legitimacy
Beyond simply the cost of lawsuits, posted videos of poorly handled encounters with public officials and front-line personnel undermine the public’s confidence in our institutions. Our courses aim to not only provide specific communication tools, but also shape attitudes that will translate to positive interactions that reflect favorably on our organizations.
About Us
We deliver effective training programs for two reasons:
First, no one hates bad training more than we do. No one.
Second, we take responsibility. When a training session is interesting and engaging, it is because we put in the work. Accordingly, we take the credit.
Conversely, if a training session was boring or uninspiring, it would be our fault. This is simply unacceptable.
To ensure the quality of our training, we collect student evaluations at the end of every session and continually refine our presentations.
Why Choose Us
During more than 30 years of training, we have paid attention to our students. We have learned what works and what doesn’t. And, frankly, we hate boring, ineffective training as much as you do.
The world never stops changing; neither do our courses. We adjust our training materials weekly, based on wide-ranging research efforts and on the feedback from our students.
We are committed to providing the best possible training experience at a competitive price.
Contact UsWe brought Leith to the University of Central Florida Police Department to provide this valuable training to our agency, recognizing that our officers are the most forward facing branch of government. Consequently, it’s incredibly important for them to be educated on constitutional law with special attention being paid to the 1st, 2nd, 4th and 5th amendments. Leith’s program provided our officers with understanding and insight regarding these important constitutional principles and this training helps to insulate them from those who would seek to discredit their professionalism. I highly recommend this training.

My agency recently hosted Sgt. Harrell (ret.) for a training session on 1st amendment auditors. We were able to open this training to other agencies and approximately 140 officers and civilian police employees were able to attend and receive valuable instruction on this topic. Mr. Harrell provided multiple examples of audits that had gone wrong and provided instruction and strategies to help public safety professionals avoid some common mistakes employees make. This training was timely, it was relevant, and it received positive reviews. As a bonus, Mr. Harrell reviewed my agency’s policies on this topic and concluded that our policy was sound. If you are looking for an engaging instructor to train your staff on this issue, I can’t recommend Mr. Harrell enough.
