Ventura County Sheriff's Department

On August 6, 2008, after many months of preparation and studying, Assistant Communications Manager and County 9-1-1 Coordinator Erin Brockus passed the Emergency Number Professional (ENP) examination.

Erin’s successful completion of this certification program demonstrates her mastery of the comprehensive body of knowledge required for emergency number (9-1-1) program management. It also confirms her commitment to the 9-1-1 profession by demonstrating her leadership in public safety communications and pledging to stay abreast of current issues and developments in the field.

Erin started her career as a dispatcher with the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department in October 1995. In January 2000, she was one of three dispatchers promoted to supervisory positions who replaced the sergeants working in the Sheriff’s Communications Center (SCC). In December 2007, Erin was promoted to Assistant Communications Manager and County 9-1-1 Coordinator.

The ENP certification program was developed by the National Emergency Number Association (NENA). NENA’s mission is to foster the technological advancement, availability, and implementation of a universal emergency telephone number system.
