Announcing our Keynote Speakers

FireShowsReno is pleased to announce 
Gordon Graham and Jeff Johnson
as our distinguished keynote speakers for the
2012 Conference


Gordon Graham is a 33 year veteran of California Law Enforcement. During his tenure as a police professional, he was awarded his Teaching Credential from California State University, Long Beach. He was later graduated from University of Southern California with a Master's Degree in Safety and Systems Management. Subsequent to this he was graduated from Western State University with a Juris Doctorate. His education as a Risk Manager and experience as a practicing Attorney, coupled with his extensive background in law enforcement, have allowed him to rapidly become recognized as a leading professional speaker with multiple areas of expertise.

Mr. Graham has centered his efforts in providing knowledge to other law enforcement, fire officers and other first responders in the area of Civil Liability, Job Based Harassment,Professionalism, Ethical Decision Making and related topics. Instead of focusing solely in after incident damage control, he focuses his efforts in the prevention of mistakes through his program SROVT (Solid Realistic Ongoing Verifiable Training).

Over the last decade, Mr. Graham has spoken to over 300,000 different law enforcement,fire personnel, dispatchers and EMS professionals from around the world (including NFA), no doubt some from your Department. Since 1990, he consistently received the highest evaluations on P.O.S.T critiques. In 1995, he was presented with the Governor’s Award for excellence in law enforcement training by Governor Wilson (sole recipient). His penetrating wit coupled with his vast knowledge in multiple disciplines provides the enlightened listener with an information packed seminar.
