Surfside Police Embrace Leadership Development Through Blue Courage Training

The Surfside Police Department participated in Blue Courage, a nationally recognized leadership training program focused on personal growth, character, and resilience in law enforcement. The days-long course was held at the Grand Beach Hotel in Surfside and led by renowned law enforcement trainer Michael Nila. Designed for all levels of the department, Blue Courage challenges officers to reflect on their core purpose, strengthen their commitment to ethical service, and lead with integrity.

“This training goes beyond tactics, it’s about the heart behind the badge,” said Chief Press. “Blue Courage gave our officers the opportunity to reconnect with why they chose to serve and reinforced the values we stand for as a department.”
