Course Description
The School of Police Staff and Command (SPSC) is an intensive ten-week program that prepares law enforcement managers for senior positions by uniquely combining academic principles with practical applications.
Since the program launched in 1983, the SPSC has received enthusiastic response from executives and participants throughout the country. In 2012, the program was redesigned and the course curriculum updated to better incorporate adult- and problem-based learning models.

Who Should Attend
SPSC is a dynamic police management program designed to prepare today's progressive public safety managers for senior command positions and is intended for mid- and upper-level supervisory personnel.
It is expected that participating students have at least two years of supervisory experience and are prepared to complete upper-division (i.e., junior and senior level) university course work.
Upper division university course work presumes that a student has the ability to:
- Write a research paper
- Perform arithmetic operations and understand elementary algebraic notation
- Read, comprehend and retain assigned materials based on textbooks, professional journals, trade magazines and other sources
- Schedule time to complete out-of-class reading and writing assignments
SPSC is not appropriate for entry-level officers, deputies or troopers. It is recommended that personnel who have recently been appointed to their first supervisory position attend NUCPS's Supervision of Police Personnel on-ground or online.
To ensure that SPSC students have sufficient time to attend class and complete out-of-class assignments, students should be released from their normal job responsibilities. Students are required to have access to the internet for grade retrieval and course communication.
Program Outcomes
Students who successfully complete SPSC are better prepared to:
· Think globally rather than remain task-oriented
· Deliver services effectively and efficiently
· Get things done with people
· Analyze the environment
· Mitigate legal exposure
· Develop systems of accountability
