Public Safety
141 N Ross St, STE A
Upon earning certification from the Alabama Police Officers Training Commission at a regional police academy, our new officers are assigned to one of our various field training officers within the Public Safety Services Police Department for an additional 16-week period of training and evaluation. Upon successful completion of the internal training and evaluation period, they are then placed on solo beat officer assignment.
Trainers at our agency are trained and certified by the Institute of Police Management and Technology as field training officers and by the Institute for Criminal Justice Education and the Alabama Police Trainers Association as law enforcement trainers.
