The 24th session of the seminar consisted of 66 law enforcement officers from the tri-state area. Lloyd, who serves with the Wildwood Crest Police Department, was invited to attend the highly selective program for a unique educational opportunity designed to provide training for and insight into some of the many challenges police chiefs and executives face. “While we pride ourselves on our high-level educational program, the MALEEDS Executive Board also provides nightly networking opportunities to continue the learning experience outside the classroom and encourages our attendees to foster relationships that will allow them to better themselves and their agencies,” recognized MALEEDS President Chuck Davall, Jr. Graduates become part of the larger FBI-Law Enforcement Executive Development Association, which provides leadership training throughout the year. d Wildwood Local 59 member Jon Weigand (left) was promoted to Sergeant and Sergeant Edward Gorski was promoted to Lieutenant within the Wildwood Crest Police Department on June 24.
