The Salisbury Fire Department will be hosting a group of firefighters from France today and tomorrow as they finish a tour of the eastern United States. The representatives were in Salisbury many years ago and have renewed their interest in learning and sharing ideas that transcend the fire and emergency management challenges globally.
You are more than welcome to meet with them and please let me know if you have an interest.
Yours in service,
Jeff
Chief Jeff Simpson, MPA

FYI.
MPA = Master of Public Administration.
The Master of Public Administration (MPA) is a professional post-graduate degree in Public Administration. The MPA program prepares individuals to serve as managers in the executive arm of local, state/provincial, and federal/national government, and increasingly in nongovernmental organization (NGO) and nonprofit sectors; it places a focus on the systematic investigation of executive organization and management. Instruction includes the roles, development, and principles of public administration; public policy management and implementation; the relations between organizational management and legislators; the public and non-profit budget processes and financial management; administrative law; personnel management focusing on civil employees; professional ethics; and appropriate research methods.[1] An MPA program typically takes 2 years of full-time, post-baccalaureate study to complete and can require additional time to complete a thesis.
