Pueblo County Sheriff’s Office, Colorado, has received Agency Training Program Certification, a Project 33® Initiative, from the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials (APCO) International.
Public safety agencies use the APCO International Agency Training Program Certification as a formal mechanism to ensure their training programs meet APCO American National Standards (ANS). Initial and continuing training for public safety telecommunicators is important as they provide essential services to the public in an expanding and rapidly changing environment.
“Training is the foundation of any effective and successful emergency communications center,” said APCO International President Stephen Martini. “Proving their public safety telecommunicator training program aligns with an American National Standard through APCO’s Agency Training Program Certification illustrates this agency’s commitment to their team members to consistently protect citizens and coordinate seamlessly with their fellow responders.”
Pueblo County Sheriff’s Office will be recognized during the Food for Thought Luncheon taking place as part of APCO’s 91st Annual Conference and Expo in Baltimore, MD, July 27-30, 2025.
