The Communications Learning Network was established in 2002 to develop and deliver shared maintenance-training programs, in an in-house training format, that can be utilized by all participating Police Service Communications trainers.

Ontario Regulation 3/99 states that each Police Service must have a “Maintenance” program for Communications members. By developing this network, participants working together are able to share the workload and costs for maintenance training for Communications members thus resulting in a reduced cost for training preparation. A program such as this will result in a consistency of maintenance-training material, a sharing of training ideas, and assist in developing partnerships within our Communications training organizations.

Interested Police Services must become an active member. An active member is required to; attend and participate at meetings and prepare lessons, course training standards and reference material in accordance with established formats.

Interested Communications trainers should contact Donna Anderson at Toronto Police Service, 416-808-8854 for the next meeting date, location and information.

Customer Service	Liability	Critical Incident Stress	By-law issues
Back to Basics – Part 1	Ethics	Wireless E9-1-1 Issues	Court Preparation
Back to Basics - Part 2	EAP	9-1-1 P.E.R.S.	Person In Authority
Suicide	Freedom of Information	Freedom of Stress	Domestics
Pursuits	Critical Incidents	Team Building	Survey Results

Due to proximity not all Police Services may be able join and attend one Network. The costs to do so would negate the savings that this type of program is intended to produce. Therefore any Police Service interested in establishing their own Communications Learning Network with Police Services in their area can contact Donna Anderson at Toronto Police Service, 416-808-8854 for information on the process that was used to get this group established.
