Training for PIOs at every level
We are proud to be aligned with the University of Tennessee Law Enforcement Innovation Center. We partner with them to provide our PIO Essentials course, the Master PIO Course, and the Crisis Communication Symposium. Find out more about these courses specifically developed for public information officers in public safety and government.
Professional Credentialling for PIOs
Becoming a proficient Public Information Officer (PIO) within a governmental or quasi-governmental entity is a critical role in the dynamic world of public safety. PIOs serve as vital liaisons between public safety agencies and the community, necessitating expertise in various essential areas.
If you want to make your work count then you need to go through the credentialling process. Our team has been involved in developing this program to enable PIOs to really evidence how what they do is not only important but recognizable in any field of communication. Find out more here.
