Open Institutes of Public Safety

Completely Trusted. Completely Respected. Completely Online

The Open Institutes of Public Safety is a collaborative community for emergency services organizations and centers of learning. The key element of a community is that it evolves and expands based on its members commitment. Looking beyond simply building a web-based learning tool, we are creating a central point for sharing ideas, training resources, and research information by breaking down the barriers that hinder communication. As such, we are following the philosophy of Open Source Development by making the content of this community "free and open" to those who wish to utilize it and are open to sharing their own findings and information. The site itself is created and the content is generated by the staff, instructors, students, and committed members of the community. If you or your organization would like to become a part of this Open Source Learning Project, simply create an account.

About the Open Institute

We provide communities based on field and public safety sector. You will find each in the main menu. For areas that cross over between sectors we offer them in both academies. Once you create an account in one, you will be able to transfer it to any of the others.
