The Florida Criminal Justice Executive Institute and the Columbia County Sheriff’s Office announce the graduation of Captain Bennie Coleman and Captain David Wingate from the Chief Executive Seminar on May 16, 2012 at the Florida Department of Law Enforcement Headquarters; located at 2331 Phillips Road, Tallahassee, Fla. The 23 seminar graduates represent criminal justice agencies around the state who serve in leadership roles within their agencies.
The seminar met for one week each month for three months at FDLE Headquarters. Graduates took classes on topics such as futures, demography, budgeting, managing generations, ethics and implementing strategic change.
The goal of the Chief Executive Seminar is to prepare Florida’s criminal justice leadership for the challenging and changing demands of the future. Class participants study trends and events that may affect criminal justice professionals and our state and develop new leadership skills to address and manage the changes ahead.
The Florida Criminal Justice Executive Institute, established within the FDLE and affiliated with the State University System, was established in 1990 by the Florida Legislature, who recognized the need for an innovative and multifaceted approach to the education and training of criminal justice professionals.
