The Central Lakes College law enforcement program recognized 19 students Thursday, July 8, who graduated from the eight-week Law Enforcement Skills Certificate program.
The program allows students to get an insider’s look into the career of law enforcement. CLC students get in the driver’s seat of new squad cars that come with the same software officers use on the streets today. Students are also trained in firearms, defense tactics, using a Taser, chemical aerosol, radar and using light detection and ranging sensing.
After earning the law enforcement skills certificate, along with an associate of applied science degree in criminal justice, criminal justice certificate or a natural resources law enforcement degree, students are ready to take the peace officer licensing exam.
