Sharpening skills and supporting telecommunicators statewide in Kansas

When the COVID-19 pandemic left emergency communication centers in Kansas short-staffed and training became a challenge, the Kansas State 911 Board launched an Emergency Mobile Dispatch and Training Center (EMDTC) powered by FirstNet. The EMDTC saved valuable time by bringing critical training directly to emergency telecommunicators and is available to augment call center capabilities across the state.
