It's a really cool program. All of my professors have or had careers in law enforcement, firefighting, emergency management, etc. Most of them have about 30 years of experience in their field, and teaching college students is their part-time or retirement job. One of my favorite professors is currently the fire chief for a local municipality. He took us to his fire station and let us play with all the fire equipment from the fire trucks, he even let us use the thermal imaging cameras!
