Communications Training Officer Workshop

---

The PSTC model is a refined version of the famous “San Jose Model” CTO program with our added PSTC “best practices” and various fantastic ideas from a number of successful programs nationwide. This workshop meets and exceeds all APCO and CALEA standards.

Hundreds of agencies have left other training providers to use the PSTC style of CTO. We spend more time building your people to be better trainers. Just because you are a great dispatcher doesn’t ensure that you are a great trainer or even that you are comfortable training. We solve those issues by teaching students how to teach, inspire, motivate and educate. We are SO proud of this course. Plus, there isn’t an expensive re-certification process like many programs. You need to seriously consider this awesome course. 



This workshop is perfect for any public safety communications trainer needing to be CTO certified. The workshop is also an outstanding resource for Supervisors and Managers so that they may learn the benefits of a standardized training program. For those that are used to APCO or other CTO programs, we offer our promise of excellence and guarantee your satisfaction! This workshop offers more information and resources than any 3-day CTO Workshop!
