Battalion Chief Kim Stewart has recently completed the Executive Fire Officer Program offered by the U.S. Fire Administration’s National Fire Academy.
The four-year program is the flagship leadership program of the U.S. Fire Administration and National Fire Academy, designed to provide fire officers with a broad perspective on various facets of fire and emergency services administration.
Those perspectives include understanding the need to transform fire and emergency services organizations from being reactive to proactive; an emphasis on leadership development, prevention, and risk-reduction; transforming fire and emergency services organizations to reflect the diversity of communities across the U.S.; and the value of research and its application to the profession; enhance executive-level knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to lead these transformations, conduct research, and engage in lifelong learning.
Stewart has worked for Prince William County since 2003 and holds a Master’s Degree in Emergency Management from the University of Richmond. She currently serves as a Battalion Chief in the Department and is assigned to Operations.
