The Training Academy receives the request; the Certificate is processed, and forwarded to the Unit Trainer.
How can I find out if I am in an upcoming class?
Unit training officers have access to all current scheduled class rosters.
How do I enroll in a class?
After choosing the class that you would like to attend, you will need to fill out an enrollment form for that particular class. There are four types of enrollment forms: In-Service for classes held by the Training Academy, Criminal Justice Institute (CJI), Inter-Agency (I/A), and Unit Level for classes held at the Unit Level. After completing the form, your supervisor must sign it and then return it to your Unit Trainer.
