When a survey of Ohio police chiefs indicated a need for training of newly promoted female officers, PST, Inc. was asked to design the course. The result was Supervisory Survival for Women , a two-day supervision skills class. Since 1997, this class has been presented to major police and sheriff's departments, colleges, and POST academies and has received excellent reviews by all participants. Gender and Leadership Issues for Male Supervisors debuted at the Northeast MultiRegional Training Center in Chicago in September 1997. This class comes as a refreshing surprise to male supervisors who have been aggravated by human relations classes taught by instructors with axes to grind.
Material is presented in an atmosphere that encourages class participation.
Students leave Gender and Leadership Issues for Male Supervisors with information that will assist them to be better supervisors. In response to requests from agencies and students, Public Safety Training will present core material from these two classes to make a new class for all ranks of women in law enforcement. This class is Survival for Women in Law Enforcement .
