Program Compliance and Implementation Manager APCO International
APCO’s Career Instructor Program (CIP) is a new APCO International initiative designed to help address the nationwide staffing shortages facing emergency communication centers. A key element of CIP is the creation of a pathway to allow state or locally certified instructors to teach secondary and post-secondary students the APCO Public Safety Telecommunicator 1, 7th Ed, course. The program’s overarching goal is to provide prospective public safety telecommunicators with an industry-recognized credential to support their transition from the educational pipeline to the workforce. Session participants will be provided with CIP details and will learn how they can help to get the program started in their areas.
