TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – The Florida Criminal Justice Executive Institute announces the graduation of 25 senior executives from the 23rd Senior Leadership Program at the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. The graduates represent criminal justice agencies from across the state.
Graduates took classes on topics such as risk management, budgeting, leadership, and futures forecasting as it relates to criminal justice.
The goal of the Senior Leadership Program is to prepare Florida’s criminal justice leadership for the challenging and changing demands of the future. Class participants study the trends and events that will confront criminal justice professionals and the state in the new millennium and examine the leadership skills necessary to create and lead the changes that lie ahead.
The Florida Criminal Justice Executive Institute, established within the Florida Department of Law Enforcement and affiliated with the State University System, was established in 1990 by the Florida Legislature to address the need for an innovative and multi-faceted approach to the education and training of criminal justice professionals.
Participants typically meet for seven weeks over a 10-month period but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this class was postponed for several months and graduated earlier today.
