During an eight-week program, 19 civilian students participated in over 40 hours of instruction on a variety of police-related topics. The 10 classes are designed to offer students a “behind-the scenes” look and candid educational opportunity to gain a new perspective about law enforcement.

The classes included, among other topics, information on police culture, patrol, forensic science, use of force, enforcing DUI, ride-along and crime scene investigation.
