The Gap-Free Narrative© for Supervisors
The New Standard in Report Review and Approval Training
*This Course is Certified by the Illinois Law Enforcement Training and Standards Board and Nationally Certified by IADLEST.
The Only and First of its Kind, Narrative Review Training with a Systematic Approach.
Protect Yourself, and Your Agency by Ensuring all Approved Reports are Gap-Free.
If you approve reports for your agency, you will leave this course knowing the parts that need to be in the reports you approve, like the back of your hand.
Supervisors in their respective agencies are responsible for assessing reports before they become part of your final record.
Unfortunately, not only are supervisors often overburdened with a myriad of other responsibilities that take away from the importance of taking the time to properly vet reports, but the assumption is that due to being a supervisor, they automatically know how to properly review and approve a report. This could not be farther from the truth.
The reports we write and the way we write them, are what keep us out of, or get us closer to, being disciplined, terminated or worse.
With our Gap-Free Narrative approach to approving incident reports, supervisors across all public agency sectors will ensure that only complete narratives become a part of the public record. Following our method will ensure the reports you approve are the best representation of an incident you can put your signature on.
Simply put, we don’t teach checking for format or paragraph structure, we teach A PROCESS that ensures the completeness of the report being reviewed and we guarantees results.
EVERY police report you approve is a TEST.
The passing standard for this test is a conviction, NOT a grade. Police reports put criminals behind bars, or allow them to remain free.
The Gap-Free Narrative gives you the ANSWERS TO THE TEST; TO EVERY TEST you will take for the rest of your career.
This course will provide supervisors with the skills needed to read any report and make sure it has all the parts to tell the “whole picture” . Your credibility, and that of your agency, is on the line with every report that you approve. Make sure they are as Gap-Free as possible.
This course is meant for Police Sergeants or any member of your organization that approves reports.

The Gap-Free Five Part Narrative©
All narratives are created and assessed with our trademarked five-part process we developed, and employ here at Offset. Within those five narrative parts, officers are able to include all aspects of any incident they are reporting on, and supervisors will know when any of them are missing or not articulated correctly. From stolen property to homicide investigations, our approach makes it as easy as going down a checklist to approve your agency’s reports.
All report-approving supervisors will be trained on how to use our method, which will bring a bar-raising standard back to your agency. Apply the Gap-Free concept to every report you approve, and you will ensure you have the best reports becoming part of the public record, for the rest of your career.
