Please, just for yourself, detail the specific steps that have to be taken for a cop to receive additional training for that type of situation and figure out a way how the cost could possibly be zero.

Well, the cops are being paid for their time anyway. They can spend their day pacing around campus killing time until their next coffee break. Or they could use that time working on being better cops. It costs the same.

Any number, minus itself, equals zero.

WHO TRAINS THEM?
Who works while they're being trained?
Who pays for the facility they're being trained at?

By your logic, we could put every citizen in a task force, pay them a cops wages, perpetually train them, and there you go: costs nothing, pays wages, pays taxes... economy saved!

WHO TRAINS THEM?

Who trains them to be cops in the first place?

It's like any other profession that requires continuing education. Cops get specialized training all the time. If your city is having a heroin crisis, your cops will be trained to recognize heroin addicts, how to deal with them, how to identify the drug, etc etc etc. This is all built into the budget in the first place.

Who works while they're being trained?

Who works when they take a sick day?? This is already built into the budget. Cops don't just graduate from the academy and then venture out into the world unassissted. New techniques of law enforcement are being developed all the time. They are rolled out through targeted training programs all the time. This is already happening. It's already paid for. It's already built into the budget.

Who pays for the facility they're being trained at?

Again...sunk cost.
