    Ensuring that the message of the class being available and that it is free, to other dispatch centers so that more telecommunicators can be encouraged to come and experience the training. It was an awesome class for dispatchers and showcased the often forgotten valuable role we can play in these events and day to day workload.

    More classes of this type that bring all levels and agencies together to complete the collective task.
