BERLIN, CT — Today we proudly announce and recognize Administrative Dispatcher Tammy Wright on her recent graduation from the Certified Public Safety Executive (CPE) Program. Dispatcher Wright has been employed with the Berlin Police Department for twenty-six years and is one of only three people in Connecticut that have achieved this certification.

The CPE Program consists of two 12-week online courses and one 10-day capstone course at the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials (APCO) headquarters in Daytona Florida. Admittance to this program is highly competitive and space is very limited. Not all who apply are admitted as they must go through an extensive screening process by the CPE admissions committee. The CPE program is a rigorous, demanding endeavor that requires serious commitment by each participant. Students must devote a considerable amount of time to coursework, which includes individual and group assignments and discussions.
