Angela McKenna – Capstone Development and Training (Mental Health and Education Expert)
I completed a B.A. in Sociology (Deans List). While working full time as an officer I completed a second degree – B. Ed in Adult Ed. in 2014. I also have extensive training in the curriculum and instructional design process.
I began policing in 1998 as an Auxiliary member and thereafter was hired as a Special Constable. In 2000 I became a Constable with an urban Regional Service where I have served for 15 years. During my career, I completed assignments in the Detective Branch, Community Resources, Quality Assurance (policy writing and auditing) and culminating in the Training Branch. I held designations as a Breath Technician, Certified Police Auditor, Designated Criminal Investigator, Certified Use of Force Instructor, CEW Instructor & Immediate Rapid Deployment Instructor and a Certified Coach for the Constable Selection System. I performed as an Acting Sergeant and Coach Officer while on Patrol. I also served on the Joint Health & Safety Committee for many years as a designated member. One rewarding project involved teaching at the Ontario Police
College and working on a committee for the OACP developing the current community policing model roll out training for recruits and serving officers. In 2010, I proudly became one of the only police officers ever to act solely as an Academic Trainer where my duties included curriculum development for today’s policing industry. I was solely responsible for developing and designing various “first” projects including a Supervisors Course and the University Special Constable Course (now offered province wide). My most rewarding project so far has been the complete re-design of my police agency’s Recruit Program into a hands-on, skills-based program which allows officers to hit the ground running faster than ever before. I am told my recruits stand apart academically while in attendance at the OPC!
I am passionate about police education and am driven to help officers feel confident and competent in their role serving the community. Angela continues her coaching and teaching practices by facilitating part-time at a local Ontario College.

Sean Baldwin — Career Firefighter
As a TRP consultant I have been able to re-create exact sample questions that you will encounter during your firefighter recruitments. I have successfully passed a number of entrance exams of varying styles and formats. Each department that you will be applying to is unique, however there are similar aptitudes that are required and expected with every fire department. During my endeavor to earn a position as a full-time professional firefighter I started out as many do graduating from a pre-service fire training program. This program gave me the basics of firefighting but not the skill sets to pass the entrance exams. TRP gives you what the colleges and fire certifications leave out. I have successfully earned a full-time position with local IAFF 1253 and consult TRP with what the industry expects of new recruits. I have incorporated into the TRP preparation program the material you will need to give you the confidence and abilities to dominate any firefighting recruitment entrance exam. Sean helps with firefighter tests such as the CPS test and the NSFT test.
