We train in silos far too often in the Public Safety profession. Real world incidents require real-time collaboration between law enforcement, corrections, fire, EMS, and emergency management. So why don’t we train that way? In this episode, we’ll talk about the importance of cross-discipline training, a problem that is being solved by Bill Fogarty and his team at 21 CLETS.
As a very special bonus, Bill and I talk about his journey from cop to entrepreneur and lay out 7 Foundational Principles for Starting Your Own Business Post-Law Enforcement.

Breaking Down Training Silos

Bill Fogarty
Bill Fogarty
William Fogarty's law enforcement career began over 20 years ago while working for the Millbrae Police Department. He has worked for several different law enforcement agencies including the Millbrae Police Department, the University of San Francisco Public Safety Department, the San Bruno Police Department, and is currently a Lieutenant with a Northern California Sheriff's Department.
He began as an instructor in 1996 at the University of San Francisco. He continued teaching at the basic police academy beginning in 2003 covering a wide variety of topics. He has also been an instructor for the University of Phoenix, Union Institute, Training for Safety, and South Bay Regional Training Consortium. While working at South Bay Regional Training Center, he has been an instructor for Management Class-Social Media, Report Writing (40 hour class, and 8 hour updates), and POST Academy Instructor Certification Course (AICC).
He founded 21 CLETS, LLC to bring together different public safety disciplines together in the classroom and as instructors. Long ago he found training to be in silos with cops training with cops, and dispatchers training with dispatchers. He also found a lack of inclusion of female instructors. He decided to change that by founding a company that honors the experience of the students, brings together instructors from Communications, Law Enforcement, Emergency Management, Fire, and Corrections together to present a training that is current and relevant!
