The calm behind every call. 📞

This National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week, we thank you, public safety dispatchers, for the critical role you play every day.

At POST, we are committed to supporting dispatchers through meaningful initiatives, including re-establishing the Public Safety Dispatch Advisory Council, enhancing the Basic Course with a standardized modular format and student workbooks, and updating Communications Training Officer (CTO) Program Guidelines.

Thank you for your dedication to public safety. We appreciate all that you do. 💙

Did you know POST conducts Basic Course Certification Reviews (BCCR) at law enforcement academies across the state biennially?

A BCCR is an in-depth review of the Regular Basic Course conducted by POST presenters to help ensure the quality, integrity, and safety of entry-level peace officer training in California.

POST staff recently conducted a BCCR at the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department Regular Basic Course.
