Interested Instructors
New Classroom Instructors
Code 4 staff and attendees are always looking for new instructors and training topics.
The key for us is keeping the costs of our training low while providing high quality instructors
and current topics. If you are contemplating instructing for Code 4 there are several things to consider:
1. New courses/topics and instructors generally take us at least 8 months to consider, approve and begin scheduling.
2. Instructor fees you require need to be in your initial proposal. We are looking to know what you require as a fee.
Keep in mind this is separate from traveling expenses and we do not pay travel time wages, so if you need to be paid for
travel time, that should be included in your instructor fee for the day of instruction.
3. If your course topic proves to be popular, we will generally book you for 6 to 10 training events per year, if you are available.
4. We do work well with instructors who wish to work part time and need to schedule around regular jobs/vacations.
Please be patient with our process. Most of our staff and BOD that review instructors and book training events are instructors working In the field themselves or have other regular jobs. Please see the Applications section below if you are interested in being considered as an instructor.
New OnLine Course Instructors
Code 4 is focused on providing quality online training opportunities for our customers, which are affordable, timely and support the need to meet CEU requirements as well as liability and professional requirements. We are currently seeking instructors who have topics which can be taught online in 2 or 3 hour segments. Those courses will include PowerPoint, videos an exam and a certificate. We can assist you with videos and other requirements for the online training, but your expertise in the field and course PowerPoint and outline are a necessity to begin Online preparation.
Our Online design means you only have to present the course one or two times for our system and then the course is stored and usable Online for many years to come. We are looking for online training topics for any of the following areas/audiences: Public Safety, Criminal Justice, Fire, Government Staff, Volunteers, Support Staff, Gun Owners, businesses, communities, community leaders and corporations. Most of the topics we are looking for would be relative to safety, security and investigations for the above audiences. If you are contemplating instructing for Code 4 there are several things to consider:
1. New courses/topics and instructors generally take us at least 8 months to consider, approve and begin scheduling.
2. Instructor fees you require need to be in your initial proposal. We are looking to know what you require as a fee.
Would you like to profit share and receive a portion of the fee paid for each person who takes an online course? Or would you like to receive a one time payment for the construction of the course, then giving us the rights to the course and sales of the course in the future.
Please be patient with our process. Most of our staff and BOD that review instructors and prepare Online training course are instructors working In the field themselves or have other regular jobs.
