The MMA will host a webinar on Oct. 2 featuring the Peace Officer Standards and Training Commission.

Established in 2020 by criminal justice reform legislation, the purpose of the POST Commission is to implement a fair process for mandatory certification, discipline and training for all peace officers in Massachusetts.

Andrew Golas, town administrator and emergency management director for the town of Charlton, will moderate a panel discussion providing essential information for municipal leaders about the POST Commission, its legal requirements for municipalities, and its future goals.

Panelists will include:

  • Enrique Zuniga, executive director of the POST Commission
  • Eric Atstupenas, general counsel for the Massachusetts Chiefs of Police Association
  • Christopher Padden, police chief in Norwood

The MMA invites attendees to submit their questions in advance when they register using Zoom.

Online registration is available for the 75-minute webinar, which will begin at noon.

Only MMA members may register. MMA members include elected officials and municipal employees from MMA member communities across the state. Media members are not permitted to attend.

Before the Oct. 2 webinar, attendees may want to watch the MMA’s first and second annual POST update webinars, available on demand on mma.org.
