Course Description

In this Telecommunicator 2 course, we will focus on the similarities between law enforcement and fire/EMS dispatching. The philosophy is that there are many more similarities than differences as borne out by the occupational analysis findings. This course will make each discipline aware of information or differences in the dispatch process that will help them understand the other better and help arm them with more information to assist them in making better decisions based on that knowledge.


Requirements
