The Center for Public Safety Excellence this fall sent representatives to the International City/County Management Association’s annual conference in Milwaukee to raise awareness among city managers and administrators about fire-department accreditation.

The Commission on Fire Accreditation International program is a comprehensive self-assessment and evaluation model that enables fire and emergency service organizations to examine past, current and future service levels and performance and compare them to industry best practices, which leads to improved service delivery.

CPSE Executive Director Paul Brooks spoke with Editorial Director Janet Wilmoth about the program and potential partnerships with administrators and vendors.
