Public Safety Executive Leadership Award

      The Northwestern University Center for Public Safety has established the Public Safety Executive Leadership Award for students who receive certificates or diplomas for the entire sequence of management programs: Supervision of Police Personnel, School of Police Staff and Command (or alternatively, the former Police Administration Training Program), and Executive Management Program.  This important credential has been established to recognize the individual’s development and his or her organization’s commitment to delivering the best, most professional service to their community.  To qualify, recipients must first be nominated by their organization and recommended as a professional in good standing by their chief or local-government executive.

             Once potential recipients have completed all three programs, they should ask their organization to send us a letter of nomination accompanied by a copy of their certificate for each program.  The letter should include the dates, location and course number of the SPSC (or PATP) and EMP from which the candidate graduated.  We will then review the information and advise the eligible recipient and organization how and where the award will be presented.  For further information on the Public Safety Executive Leadership Award, call 800/323-4011 and ask to speak with someone in the Management Training division.
