Criminal Justice Programs will offer a 40-Hour Advanced Law Enforcement Training program in January that will be repeated again in February and in March.  Departments can contract to send their officers to the entire training program or to select programs.  This training is designed so that departments will have the ability to provide every officer in their department with exactly the same training over a period of three (3) months.  There will be limited seating so it is imperative that you pre-pay to insure a seat for your officers.  2008 is the Last Year of the POST Mandatory CEU training cycle. All Officers Must have 48 hours of POST Certified Continuing Education Units by December 31, 2008 to maintain their Peace Officer License.
