Benchmarking and learning from others are important activities for organizations engaged in continuous improvement. Working collaboratively with the Fairfax County Department of Fire & Rescue, the Henrico County Division of Fire has developed a Command Officer Exchange Program to allow chief officers from both departments to experience an internship in the partner organization. In addition to providing networking opportunities with the partner agency, participants have an opportunity to learn how others approach common problems and exchange ideas for improvement back home.
