This cost-effective, 11-week program, offered each quarter, applies diverse training experiences and innovative training strategies to prepare recruits to be highly qualified officers.

Classroom and practical training are central to the program. All instructors are state certified and are currently active in their fields of expertise. Students also are required to take part in several practical scenarios that include traffic stops, crimes in progress, building searches, court testimony, street stops and a variety of everyday situations common to police work.

A regularly scheduled strength and aerobic program is conducted during the academy program. Defensive tactics, along with other techniques, including verbal judo, are part of the curriculum.

The firearms program is set up with safety first. All instructors are master firearms certified and full-time law enforcement officers. To ensure safety, we maintain a close ratio of students to instructors.
