9-1-1 ACOG Call Taker Institute

Since 1994, the 9-1-1 Association has regularly offered area call-takers basic telecommunicator training as well as occasionally hosting supervisor training and train-the-trainer courses through the 9-1-1 Institute. This has been a great success with a substantial percentage of all telecommunicators in the region now having national certification.

9-1-1 ACOG is expanding the 9-1-1 Institute to provide affordable post-basic training. The Continuing Education Series will be offered to area telecommunicators and managers to enhance skills in the emergency communications center.

To register or suggest training to be offered in the future contact Anita Kroth at 234-2264.
