The physical training programs consists of multiple station weight training, mat/stretching exercises and aerobic/formation runs on both dirt and paved road surfaces. All classes are taught on site. Our basic academy program is administered under a structured discipline format, which prepares officers for the stress related to law enforcement.
Reserve Training Unit
The Modular Format Training Program consists of 4 course levels. PC 832, Level III, Level II and Level I.

Students must pass all tests before progressing to the next level.
The training center continues to attract numerous students wishing to participate in the four modular reserve classes. The completion of all four modular classes is equivalent to a basic academy graduate making the student eligible to be hired by law enforcement agencies as a full-time peace officer.
