Emergency Telecommunicator Course Instructor Certification

Purpose: This course provides the knowledge, skills, and national certification you need to teach the Emergency Telecommunicator Course (ETC). Once you have taken this course and received national certification, you will have obtained the highest status available for basic emergency telecommunications instructors.

When: June 26-28, 2009

Where: Delgado Community College, City Park Campus, New Orleans

Sponsored by: The course is presented through collaboration between National Academies of Emergency Dispatch (NAED) and the National Partnership for Careers in Law, Public Safety, Corrections, and Security.

Costs: Cost will be $450 through June 20 and $500 after that date. Each participant will receive a Teaching Packet with the student (course) manual (approx. 200 pages) and instructor manual (approx. 160 pages).

Participants: Instructors at the secondary and post-secondary levels with experience in the public safety field and/or teaching in that field.

Institute Description: Obtaining NAED ETC instructor certification affiliates you with the world's largest independent, public safety-related certification organization. The ETC-I course includes all of the materials necessary to teach the ETC Course and certify your students, including:
     ETC Course Manual (student manual)
     ETC Instructor Manual
     ETC Instructor Toolkit (CD-ROM)
          -Complete PowerPoint presentations for each chapter/topic
          -Instructor notes
          -Audio media
          -Video media
The most important benefit of ETC instructor certification is that your students will be eligible for NAED ETC certification. Students who take the Emergency Telecommunicator Course from uncertified instructors are not eligible for ETC certification. This certification is a nationally recognized certification that 911 centers use. In many cases those hired with this certification start at a higher salary than those hired who are not certified. In all cases career programs starting such the ETC should have partnerships with their local emergency dispatch centers.
