Congratulations to the Graduates of the 93rd Command Officer's Development Course!

 

Today (November 17, 2023) is graduation day for the members of the 93rd Command Officer's Development Course in Wethersfield, Connecticut! Forty-five officers representing sixteen agencies from three different states will be receiving their diplomas for completing the 400 hour, ten-week course covering law enforcement administration and management practices for mid and upper-level personnel. Your SPI family proudly recognizes this momentous achievement and welcomes you all as alumni of the institute!
Many thanks to the Wethersfield Police Department for co-hosting the CODC again (and agreeing to giving it another shot next year as well!), to all of our knowledgeable instructors for sharing their invaluable wisdom and expertise in their respective fields, and to course coordinator and SPI alumni himself, Keith Egan, for all his hard work! We appreciate you all.
I'd also be remiss if I didn't mention a very important part of the 93rd CODC, the "Class dog," Luke Jacob - pictured below front and center with the class on the steps of the State Library in Hartford, CT. Luke Jacob is the Southington Police Department's "House dog," and he attended class each day with his handler, LT Cifone. We welcome him also to the SPI family!
