First Line Supervisor Training

The First Line Supervisor (FLS) Program is mandated by COMAR for newly promoted or soon-to-be-promoted public safety supervisors. Participants must complete this 35-hour program within 12 months of their promotion. This program provides supervisors with the essential leadership and administrative skills needed to excel in their roles. Through a blend of foundational concepts and practical application, participants will learn to effectively transition from a team member to a leader, problem solve, and navigate the complex legal and ethical challenges inherent to public safety. To successfully complete the program, students will be required to take daily quizzes with a minimum average score of 75% and maintain at least a 90% attendance throughout the duration of the course. There is a strict deadline for registration of 1-week prior to the first day of class.

This program replaces the 35-hour program and incorporates the newly adopted 39 performance objectives. It is a 7-day program suitable for both law enforcement and correctional officers and includes interactive, problem solving exercises focusing on the fundamental skills required of all first line supervisors. Exercises are tailored to meet the needs and expectations of each class with examples drawn from both disciplines. The program is offered 11 times during 2005. Since this is a combined law enforcement/corrections program, there will not be separate sessions for police and correction personnel. All sessions will be held at the Public Safety and Education Training Center in Sykesville with a maximum capacity of 24 participants.
