Silsbee PD officer graduates from LEMIT

Sgt. Justin Rogers of the Silsbee Police Department graduated from the Leadership Command College of the Law Enforcement Management Institute of Texas (LEMIT) on June 24, bringing that expertise back home for the community.

The program, taught by a consortium of universities throughout Texas, provides law enforcement administrators and executives with the skills necessary to effectively manage police agencies and deliver a high level of service to their communities. Module I, focusing on leadership, is taught at the Center for Executive Development at Texas A&M University; Module II at Texas Woman’s University focuses on the political, legal, and social environment of law enforcement. The program concluded with training in law enforcement administration at the Module 3 held at Sam Houston State University.

Each of the three-week modules was taught by top national and international law enforcement experts. Topics included leadership, professional ethics and integrity, communication, and personnel management issues.
