TRUSSVILLE–The Trussville Fire Department and Center Point Fire District held a joint training session on Monday at the Trussville Civic Center.
The Officer Development Program is an annual training where officers spend the day working on incident management and emergency response.
“It’s just a way to invest in our people and make sure that we’re prepared for whatever comes at us,” Trussville Fire Chief Tim Shotts said.
Officers spent the day collaborating with other departments through mock scenarios where they could work together to think through problems they may face in the field and develop solutions.
The department will also hold a similar training for firefighters this fall.
