Create High-Performance Emergency Dispatchers

Emergency Dispatch Training shouldn't be sink or swim

In an industry with overwhelming turnover, the grind of training cohort after cohort of Emergency Dispatchers can take a toll. By implementing a structured protocol system, you can worry less about deciding what you need to teach and focus your energy and skills on helping new Emergency Dispatchers succeed.

The Priority Dispatch System complements your years of experience navigating the ins and outs of your Emergency Communications Center with the most up-to-date curriculums, materials, and course types you need to prepare Emergency Dispatchers to put our protocols into practice with confidence.

Systematize your dispatch training efforts

Continually Updated Online and Onsite Courses

Building and updating a high-quality training course is one of the most time-consuming jobs for instructors. That’s why we’ve built curriculums and courses designed to help you help Emergency Dispatchers get the most out of our protocol so they can turn around and field calls with confidence right out of the gate.

Collaborative Training Curriculums

You know your agency better than we do. That’s why we’ve made developing our training curriculums a collaborative process, giving you access to our community of trainers where you can suggest changes to training materials and learn how others train their Emergency Dispatchers on specific protocols.

Discipline-Specific Certifications

You know more than most that merely completing a course does not equal mastery of the materials. We offer in-depth certification courses based on the International Academy of Emergency Dispatch protocols as well as Quality Assurance certifications that help your agency use those protocols to their fullest extent.

Continuing Dispatch Education Resources

The world changes daily, and the skills we relied on yesterday might not apply to a situation that pops up tomorrow. We offer ongoing education courses like an Active Assailant Course so Emergency Dispatchers can apply new or unique protocols effectively and offer the best response possible, every time.
