Co-Host a Tuition Class
Our open-enrollment training classes are delivered throughout the year, nationwide, through partnerships with local agencies. Co-host agencies select the program and dates, provide the training facility, and market the class locally. The IACP provides the instructor and class materials, manages registrations, and markets the class nationally/internationally. Depending on agency and total enrollment, the co-host may receive 1 or more complimentary seats in the class. For more information on the benefits and responsibilities of co-hosting, please see our Guide to Co-Hosting.
