Description
The Canadian Police College (CPC) is pleased to announce the updated microprogram for Advanced Executive Leadership in Law Enforcement, now officially titled: Stewarding the Profession: Advanced Executive Leadership in Law Enforcement. We continue to offer this microprogram in partnership with the University of Ottawa's Professional Development Institute (PDI).
Through each course, participants will be exposed to real world scenarios and cover topics that are germane to successful policing in today's world. While each course will have a different lead instructor, the content is designed to be cumulative thereby helping to enable participants to not simply envision a desired future but to have the tools, connections and resources to work collaboratively towards creating this vision by the time they complete course six, which will include a written assignment.
Notable changes to this third cohort include: the shift of theme of Course 1 to: Leading Change in Law Enforcement; the addition of a personalized coaching program for each participant - for details please explore our Custom Leadership Coaching page as you will be provided a coaching program. Lastly, we are shifting the assignment to a short-written submission following each individual course.
