Meet the instructor

Dan Flippo

My name is Dan Flippo and I want to teach you everything I know about the promotional process and more importantly how to be an effective sergeant! I have so many things to share with you that the only practical way to do so was to create this online training course. Once you enroll, you are going to not only have access to my materials but also great content from some of my favorite police leaders (I cajoled them into sharing their best advice for sergeants’ candidates and they didn’t disappoint!). In my 29 year career as a cop, I worked all the different ranks and retired as a Deputy Chief. I have been the one to make promotional decisions and I want give you a behind scenes look at that process. But even though I rose through the ranks, being a patrol sergeant was my favorite assignment, and I want you to have the same experience. Ready to get started? Click the enroll button and I will see you inside.
