The Florida Criminal Justice Executive Institute (FCJEI) announces the graduation of the 25th class of the Senior Leadership Program at the Florida Department of Law Enforcement today. The 34 graduates represent criminal justice agencies from across the state.

The graduates met for six weeks over a 9-month period and attended classes on topics such as Risk Management, Trust-Based Leadership and Futures Forecasting as it relates to criminal justice.

The goal of the Senior Leadership Program is to prepare Florida’s criminal justice leadership for the challenging and changing demands of the future. Class participants studied the trends and events that will challenge criminal justice professionals and the state in the new millennium and examined the leadership skills necessary to create and lead the changes that lie ahead.

The Florida Criminal Justice Executive Institute was established in 1990 by the Florida Legislature to address the need for an innovative and multi-faceted approach to the education and training of criminal justice professionals.  The Florida Criminal Justice Executive Institute is house within the Florida Department of Law Enforcement and is affiliated with the State University System.
