Welcome
Welcome to the Oregon Executive Development Institute (OEDI) website. We hope this website will provide our guests and members with valuable information regarding our organization. Our membership includes managers and executives from all areas of Oregon’s public safety community.
In the coming year, the Oregon Executive Development Institute will be expanding its membership-base and training opportunities. OEDI will include military personnel and other associate members representing higher education and sectors of private industry having a direct relationship with the furtherance of public safety and OEDI goals and objectives.
One of our primary goals is to partner with public and private sector organizations to develop public safety executives that value and apply contemporary knowledge and leadership skills, striving for excellence and enhancing service to their communities. To achieve this goal, OEDI will provide relevant, cutting-edge leadership training and education, developing a professional network among its members and stakeholders for information sharing, problem solving and collaboration.
