About this listen

In this episode, we sit down with Commander Jim Gets of the Macon County Law Enforcement Training Facility to explore what it truly takes to serve and protect a community. Beyond the tactical skills and procedures, Jim opens up about the human elements that define great police officers—empathy, integrity, communication, and a genuine commitment to the people they serve.

Commander Gets shares insight into how law enforcement training has evolved to prioritize these essential qualities, preparing officers not just for the job, but for the profound responsibility of public service. We also discuss the pivotal role Richland Community College plays in this transformation, innovating pathways that connect people to meaningful careers in law enforcement and beyond.

This conversation highlights how RCC is doing more than training officers—they're shaping the future of our community by investing in people who will make it safer, stronger, and more compassionate. It's a powerful example of redemption through education and innovation, where opportunity meets purpose and transforms lives in the process.
