LEAT’s new space boasts over 7,000 square feet of state-of-the-art classroom and administrative space, allowing LEAT to expand their training capacity. Additionally, Tuscaloosa County Public Works’ crews constructed a new physical agility and ability course on site for LEAT. Through the partnership with the Synergic Center’s regional training center, LEAT can run simultaneous courses, including Crisis Response Intervention and Command Courses.
