Customer Service & Professionalism in Dispatch
Professionalism & Working with the public and coworkers
When it is your 23rd barking dog complaint of the day, it is easy to get frustrated, annoyed, short, or all of the above. It's important as dispatchers to remember that our 76th call, is someone's first call. We must provide them with the experience we would expect if situations were reversed. It's also important to remember that professionalism extends beyond the calls we take to how we treat our law enforcement, EMS, and fire personnel, as well as our coworkers in dispatch.

About Impact Dispatch
Founded in 2018, Impact Dispatch was created for dispatchers, by dispatchers with one clear purpose: to provide affordable, high-quality training and professional development for public safety communications professionals and agencies of every size.
We understand the realities of working behind the headset because our training is built from real-world experience. We also understand that training budgets can look very different from one communications center to another. A small or rural agency should not have to sacrifice quality simply because it does not have the training budget of a larger organization.
That's why affordability and accessibility are at the heart of Impact Dispatch.
Our training is designed to be practical, relevant, and applicable to the challenges communications professionals face every day. From foundational dispatcher skills and critical incident response to leadership, employee development, and advanced professional growth, we are committed to supporting communications professionals throughout their careers.
Impact Dispatch is more than a collection of online courses. Our goal is to help elevate the profession by giving dispatchers the knowledge, tools, resources, and confidence they need to grow—not only as telecommunicators, but as public safety professionals and future leaders.
Whether we are serving one dispatcher, a small communications center, or a large agency, our commitment remains the same:
Quality training should be within reach for everyone.
Created for Dispatchers. By Dispatchers. Built for the Profession.
Keep Learning. Keep Growing. Keep Making an Impact.
