Biographical / Historical

The Police Executive Leadership Program was founded circa 1994 at the Johns Hopkins' School of Continuing Studies (later the Division of Public Safety Leadership, part of the School of Education at Johns Hopkins). The program was founded by Sheldon Greenberg (associate director of a Washington-based law enforcement think tank) and Stanley Gabor, then dean of the School of Continuing Studies. The program intended to use the liberal arts—classes in ethics, literature, economics, and history—to teach upper-level public safety officials the leadership skills they needed to run their departments. The program granted degrees to students from all branches of public service: law enforcement, fire/EMS, emergency management, transit, campus safety, private security, and the intelligence and military communities.
