Thank you for your interest in co-hosting an APCO Institute training course. With your assistance, we can bring high-quality APCO training to your community at no charge to you or your agency.

APCO Institute offers a wide variety of classes to co-host. All are taught by an APCO Institute Adjunct Instructor.

We require two to three months advance notice so that we may properly promote the class and make all of the preparations to be sure that your class is a success. APCO Institute reserves the right of final decision on the exact dates for the class and the minimum number of students for each class. Classes that do not meet the minimum required number of registrants may be cancelled.

As the co-host, there are a few things that we require of you and your agency:

  • Complete and submit this co-host application to the APCO Institute.
  • Contact local agencies in your area to invite their staff members to participate in the class.
  • Provide a suitable classroom facility for the class. (See details in the co-host application.)
  • Designate a staff member to receive and hold the shipment of books and materials for the class,
    and to ensure that those materials are available to the instructor at least one hour prior to the
    start of the first day of class.
  • Designate a staff member to facilitate instructor/student introductions.
  • Assist the instructor as needed.

Please fill out the co-host application completely and submit to the APCO Institute. You will receive a PDF copy of your application. PLEASE SAVE THIS FOR YOUR RECORDS.

We would like to co-host an APCO Institute class. Our agency/chapter is committed to assisting with this effort and will assist APCO Institute in bringing this class to our community.

We also understand that there is a “minimum number of registrants” rule and understand that APCO Institute may cancel the class if the prescribed minimum number of registrants has not registered with APCO Institute by twenty-one (21) days prior to the start of the class.

We agree to provide adequate classroom space to APCO Institute at no charge, as noted in this co-host application. We also agree to accept the shipment of class materials and to deliver those materials unopened to the class instructor at the class site no less than one hour prior to the beginning of class.
