Is an Emergency Dispatcher Certification Course Right for You?
It takes a remarkable person to do the work of an emergency dispatcher. As the first point of contact in emergency situations, a dispatcher must not only gather key information quickly from someone who could be acting indecisive, stunned, or confused, but also care for that person until help arrives. In addition, dispatchers act as the eyes and ears of first responders, preparing police, fire, and EMTs for what awaits them.
People who typically excel on the job as an emergency services dispatcher:
- Are looking for a career where they get to help in crisis situations
- Want to be a valuable resource to their community
- Thrive on multitasking, listening, problem-solving, and teamwork
- Tend to be curious and need daily challenges to stay engaged with their work
If this describes you, then 9-1-1 dispatch training might be the perfect fit.
