Fifteen students will graduate from the 21st session of the UAF Community and Technical College Law Enforcement Academy, Friday, Nov. 11, at 1 p.m. at the Alaska Centennial Center for the Arts in Pioneer Park.
The graduation marks the culmination of the 13-week academy, which is offered twice a year. The academy is designed to provide students with basic police training, which enables them to receive the Alaska Police Standards Certification. The certification makes them eligible for employment with the 21 state law enforcement agencies or 43 municipal police departments within Alaska.
This session’s students come from all over Alaska and the Lower 48, including Homer, Anchorage, Fairbanks, Nulato, Washington, Minnesota, Montana and New York. The class speaker is Alice Williams with the Petersburg Police Department.
The ceremony brings the total number of academy graduates to 359 since August 2001. The next session of the academy begins Feb. 13, 2012.
