Get Certified to Teach APCO Courses at Your Agency
Save training and travel costs by getting staff members trained to teach various APCO courses in your own ECC. Through APCO’s Instructor Course, agency instructors can get certified to teach one of the disciplines below.
- Public Safety Telecommunicator
- Communications Training Officer
- Emergency Medical Dispatch
- Fire Service Communications
- Law Enforcement Communications
The first part of the instructor course focuses on the skills needed to be informative and effective instructors. The second part includes discipline-specific training needed for certification to teach that class.
Participants should register for the discipline in which they’re seeking instructor certification. All instructor candidates must have successfully completed the student course in the discipline in which they are seeking certification.
Having an in-house instructor may reduce new-hire and in-service training and travel.
