Brief Description: Public Safety Leadership Development Block 200

Full Description: Course Description:
Welcome to the Public Safety Leadership Development course provided by the Fire and Public Safety Academy. This leadership course is an all-discipline inclusive training that strives to foster and advance Indiana’s public safety leaders.

In this course subject matter experts use the Socratic method to engage students in a dialectic method of learning.  This is not a lecture only class!  From the first to the last hour of instruction students are exposed to creative, motivating, and passionate leadership growth.

This course helps to develop comprehension tools, methodology, and leadership skills that are beneficial in both the student’s professional and personal lives.  Here are some personal testimonials:

"I highly recommend this innovative leadership class that is transformative for all Public Safety Agencies; a valuable asset that will pay dividends in efficiency, productivity, and longevity."
- Director Chris K. Springer, White County Emergency Management & Homeland Security

“The class was engaging, motivational and one of the best classes I’ve taken in my 20-year career.   I feel 100 percent that you and your training team do a wonderful job providing the tools you need to be a successful leader by using real-life experiences.   All the while you’re learning important things about yourself.  I can’t wait to sit through the class again!”
- Deputy Director Erin L. Campbell Wayne County Emergency Communications

“The leadership class is truly one of the most important and impressive courses any firefighter, company officer or chief can take.  It has made me a more effective chief and has benefited me personally as well as my community.”
- Chief Joe Martin, Dyer Fire Department

“Honestly, I did not have much of an expectation coming into this course. After the first hour I was hooked! The passion of the instructors to share their leadership knowledge is very evident. I feel if a person truly wants to excel as a leader, this training is essential and if practiced, has the potential to change any agency for the better!”
- Deputy Chief Training Andrew Buckler, Richmond Fire Department

“This is so much more than a class.  It not only taught me what type of leader I am, but also taught me how to work with other various types of leaders.  This class also provided a resource for networking with other first responders.  I would not only recommend this class for those in executive leadership, but those frontline supervisors as well.”
- Director Kevin D. Hicks, Grant County Central Dispatch

“We have classes to teach tactics, budgets, or any other task we are expected to provide as officers but, we have lacked guidance for the personal aspect of our job. This class covers the most important aspect of leadership, the personal component. It should be encouraged for all officers, if not required.”
- Chief Barry Stroup Wabash Fire Department
