We are excited to introduce the APCO Career Instructor Program (CIP). This program will establish a structured training pathway for state or locally certified educators to attend APCO’s core course, APCO Public Safety Telecommunicator (PST) 1, 7th Edition, at no cost. Educators are then qualified to teach the PST 1 course to secondary or post-secondary students. The goal of CIP is to ensure that educators across the nation are well-equipped to deliver industry-standard training to the next generation of public safety telecommunicators, providing a solution to the critical staffing needs of ECCs across the country.
