What careers require attendance at a police academy?
Almost all law enforcement, criminal investigator, probation, corrections officers are sworn peace officer who are required to successfully complete an academy. The general rule of thumb is “If it is a government employee who has the legal authority and responsibility to make arrests, carry a firearm, obtain and serve search and arrest warrants is a peace officer,” the position requires peace officer status, academy training, and being able to meet all physical and background investigation standards.
