Beginning on April 16, the 7-week program will meet each Monday and Wednesday from 6:30-9:00 p.m. at the Greenwich Police Department Headquarters.

Topics of instruction include:
  • Introduction to Policing

    In addition to participating in role-playing exercises, attendees will accompany on-duty police personnel within the Marine Division, as well as the Patrol Division. Ride-a-longs are scheduled beyond regular class times. A demonstration at the Police Firing Range will allow recruits to participate in mock scenarios where an officer may or may not have to fire their weapon. There will also be a demonstration of the SRU (a.k.a. SWAT) team, as they rescue a hostage (in a training scenario).

    There is no fee for the program. The class size is limited to 40 students. Due to the high demand for this course, qualified applicants may be subject to a lottery drawing to determine the final class roster.

    To inquire about the next academy, calls can be directed to the Greenwich Police Department Community Impact Section Supervisor.
