Harley-Davidson and TEEX 'gear up' to offer specialized officer motorcycle training

COLLEGE STATION, TX — Harley-Davison and TEEX are 'gearing up' to provide local law enforcement with a new standard for police motorcycle training.

Assisting local law enforcement's motorcycle units, this program is designed for peace officers to receive basic, to advanced, motorcycle operator training. A police motorcycle instructor certification course will also be offered.

"This is an effort we are all very proud to be a part of," said John Sharp, Chancellor of The Texas A&M University System. "TEEX training keeps those who protect and serve us safe and on the road."

This program will initially offer three training courses: basic, advanced, and instructor-level.

Basic training is 80 hours of practical training for those going directly into a police motor unit. Advanced training is for experienced riders who are part of an agency looking to enhance their riding skills. The Instructor-Level training course, once completed, will certify the participant to customize their own agency training program and continue their training internally.
