Southeast Emergency Communications Receives APCO Agency Training Program Certification
Alexandria, VA – Southeast Emergency Communications, IL, has met the minimum training standards for the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials (APCO) International Agency Training Program Certification and has been awarded certification as of February 5, 2016.
Public safety agencies utilize 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.
“America’s public safety communications agencies represent the first tier of emergency response,” said APCO International’s President Brent Lee. “Ensuring that training programs and procedures are current, comprehensive, and effective is a key element to success in this role. Achieving APCO Agency Training Program Certification is proof of an agency’s commitment to excellence and of their dedication to the communities they serve.”
