As part of our department's commitment to seek continuous improvement and skills enhancement, I set a challenge for my admininistrative team to attain one of the levels of certification through OMMI (Ontario Municipal Managers Institute) and OACUSA (Ontario Association of College and University Security Administrators).
The professional designation/certification offered through OMMI is the CMM (Certified Municipal Manager) with four levels of certification (CMM, CMMI, CMMII and CMMIII) which are awarded on a progressive points system based on professional experience, education, and ongoing training in particular areas of management and leadership. The Security endorsements added by OACUSA (Security Specialist, Security Professional and Security Executive) are awarded based on specific industry requirements and experience. The CMM designation with specialty endorsement is a legally recognized credential in the province of Ontario (Bill PR27 - 1988).
I am proud to announce that each of the following Public Safety and Legal and Risk Management Personnel have succesfully earned the following professional certifications:
- Rob Kilfoyle, CMMIII Security Executive
- Nancy Deason, CMMIII Security Professional
- Kathy Branton, CMMIII Security Professional (Kathy also holds a previous CMMIII Emergency Management Professional designation)
- Keith Pua, CMMll Security Professional.
- Ernie Colosimo, CMMll Security Specialist
- MaryAnn Gregoris, CMMll Security Specialist
- David Yen, CMMll Security Specialist
- Adnan Salam, CMMll Security Specialist
Please join me in offering congratulations to them all.
Well done team!
Rob Kilfoyle, CPP, CMMlll Security Executive
Director, Public Safety and Emergency Management
