This fall, those seeking to become law enforcement officers will have the chance through the Peace Officer Basic Academy at Washington State Community College.
Dr. Jona Hall, dean of transfer and public services at WSCC, said through the academy, a person will learn everything they need to know to become a law enforcement officer to patrol the streets.
This academy is different from those in the recent past, as classes will be held in the evenings Monday through Friday.
“Monday through Friday is mandatory attendance, with some weekends,” Hall said. “That’s the draw on this particular academy. It’s an evening academy for people who work during the day.”
