The Center for Public Safety Excellence is excited to launch the CPSE Center for Innovation to serve as a catalyst for innovation in the fire and emergency service.

The CPSE Center for Innovation’s five program areas will highlight innovative solutions developed by CPSE accredited agencies and credentialed professionals and address an industry-wide gap in evidence-based decision making. As a trusted resource for innovative practices, the Center for Public Safety Excellence looks forward to giving back to the fire and emergency service through the launch of the CPSE Center for Innovation.

Innovation Training and Facilitation    Built on the concepts of “teaching a person to fish, rather than giving them a fish”, we offer Stakeholder Centered Innovation Facilitation, Innovation Talks, Innovation Bootcamps, and Innovation Handbooks to enable fire and emergency service departments and personnel to develop hyper local solutions to their unique issues and needs.

Innovation Museum    A highly curated experience through an online platform, educational webinars, and engaging events, the Innovation Museum showcases proven practices of CPSE agencies and designees on the most pressing topics for the fire and emergency service.

Actionable Research    Working with prominent researchers, the CPSE Center for Innovation provides actionable recommendations and implementation strategies to address challenges. By conducting new public administration and public policy research, we will assist the fire and emergency service in solving problems before they become a crisis.

Insight Hub    Harnessing the power of artificial intelligence through a proprietary large language model, the Insight Hub ingests decades of information from CPSE agencies and allows users to seek focused and customized insights to their specific requests.

Expert Finder    By curating expertise from a vetted range of experts on foundational subjects to cutting-edge areas, our Expert Finder removes the insular nature of problem solving.  Committed to developing the next generation of fire and emergency experts, the CPSE Center for Innovation will also incubate and support rising experts.

The CPSE Center for Innovation is currently securing partnerships and sponsorships and plans to launch officially in Quarter 1 2025.
