The new Micro-credential Certificate in Senior Police Leadership is a purposefully designed education program that fills in the knowledge gaps needed of current and future police leaders. This unique program is designed to provide police leaders with the specific skills, knowledge, and assets they need to provide effective leadership within today's complex police services. Taught by teaching teams of academics and serving or retired senior police leaders, this program brings together uniformed and civilian members to create and learn best practices from an effective, unified policing team.
