Pathway to Promotion
Course Description: How are you preparing for your next promotion? How do you stand out from the other candidates? This Pathway to Promotion course is designed for participants who are desiring, seeking or in the promotional process. In today’s challenging landscape of policing, politics, perceptions, and community trust, having the right people in supervision has never been more crucial. Beyond years of experience, what other factors need to be considered for promotion? This course is designed to guide each participant in discovering the importance of having a winning mindset, preparing for success, setting themselves apart from the competition, and preparing for the next promotional process. The promotional process within the law enforcement culture is often referred to as “playing the game”. This course will provide participants with challenging considerations and insights on how to better navigate the promotional process and align themselves for success. This course will highlight potential promotional questions that may be asked on a typical promotional exam or panel. Each question is specifically designed to challenge the participant to think critically and multi-dimensionally in thought and response. This course is highly interactive, and participants are required to engage in all classroom activities. At the conclusion of this course, each participant will have gained a deeper understanding of the promotional process, how to effectively respond to interview questions, how to discover and reflect on their motives for promotion, and strategies to become a standout candidate for promotion.
