VILLAS – Lt. Patrick Greene, the Patrol Bureau Commander with the Lower Township Police Department, recently graduated from the 48th session of the prestigious New Jersey State Association of Chiefs of Police (NJSACOP) Command and Leadership Academy.
He now joins Chief William Mastriana and Capt. Martin Biersbach as one of three current Lower Township Police Officers to have completed the program.
The 14 week academy was developed in 1993 by the NJSACOP in collaboration with the United States Military Academy at West Point. The highly competitive program aims to fashion officers into police leaders who can meet challenges in the law enforcement community. The primary focus of the program is on personnel and their work environments. Officers study theories on behavior and motivation, conflict management, decision making and communication.
Throughout the course, officers are challenged to take the various leadership theories they were taught and devise real world solutions to the complex problems presented to them.
Participation in the Command and Leadership Program is based on applicants successfully completing a competitive selection process.
Chief Mastriana has stated additional Lower Township Police Command Personnel and Police Sergeants will attend this training as the opportunity presents itself.
