The October meeting was hosted by Ofc. Paul Corcoran of Lowell
PD at the Lowell
Police Training
Center. The main speakers included
Terry Downes, Marcie Barnes, and Audrey Nahabedian, all of
Middlesex
Community College. Each discussed the variety
of programs offered at MCC – public safety seminars, basic computer
training, law enforcement computer training, and fun, extra curricular
programs. MCC really does a
fantastic job at keeping up with the times and focusing a number of
things on the Law Enforcement Field.
As one who has personally taken the courses and attended the
seminars, I would strongly recommend getting up to Lowell
for the events! If anyone is
interested in something specific and would like to see a class…just
let them know!
