Agencies use the International Agency Training Program Certification as a way to ensure their training programs meet standards.

ROSWELL, GA — The City of Roswell Police – 911 has received Agency Training Program Certification, a Project 33 Initiative, from the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials (APCO) International.

Public safety agencies use 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.

“Effective initial training, as well as continuing education are paramount for public safety telecommunicators,” said APCO International President Holly Wayt. “Successfully attaining APCO’s Agency Training Program Certification clearly demonstrates an agency’s commitment to the citizens and public safety responders they serve.”
