- Send us your certificate template and will build it in to our system so you can dynamically create and email hundreds of certificates in seconds, saving you hours of valuable time.

What Makes LEO Network Better Than Other Training Calendars?
There is absolutely no comparison! We have more reach, more features, no cost and we are growing extremely fast!
Here's the facts:
- We are by far the largest police training calendar in North America.
- Thousands of police officers each month use our calendar to find upcoming training near them.
- Our calendar is optimized for mobile devices and desktops making us very user friendly.

Our Mission
Our mission is to provide a one stop shop for police training. By providing a free and easy to use platform, we take the cost out of advertising training. We strive to build partnerships with law enforcement entities of all kinds. By doing this, we are hoping to help entities team up through our platform and help each other grow. Our motto? Lets work together and help each other.
How Our User Email Subscriptions Work
We have a training bulletin like no one else. Each user can subscribe to our training emails by the states relevant to them, so all the irrelevant trianing is filtered out automatically. Users also get to choose the frequency training emails are sent to them. If they want them every two weeks, once a month, or every two months, we will only send them emails according to their selections.
For example, if a California user subscribes, they can pick updates for the states of they consider relevant to them. One California user may choose California, Nevada and Arizona, and another may choose California and Oregon. Each user would only receive training in the states they selected.
Our goal is to take all the friction and time out of finding training. When users subscirbe, all upcoming training and events in their chosen states go to the users. By keeping all information relevant to the user, they are more likely to open the emails as they always contain relevant information.
