Learn to lead responses to serious and critical incidents. Discover the challenges and complexities of working in this area. Understand the legal requirements in place and the responsibilities you’ll have as a leader.
Designed and delivered by former senior professional police officers and academic experts, this taught Masters provides a practical and theoretical approach to the ever-increasing complexities of strategic leadership. Learn through roleplay and problem-solving exercises to explore real-life scenarios.
We’ll cover how to manage competing operational and organisational demands, as well as the wider strategic implications of critical and major incident management.
