The Carmel Police Department is proud to present
a program that provides insight to the public on the
responsibilities and operations of our Department. Our first
academy was conducted in April of 2001. That session was an
overwhelming success and every subsequent academy has been even
better!
We have designed the CPA to accomplish several goals. The
most important goal is to open channels of communication between
the citizen's of Carmel and their Police Department.
Additionally, we want to develop an understanding of the police
role in the community. The objective of the Academy is not to
make police officers out of the graduates, but to make them
better informed citizens, with an accurate knowledge of our many
responsibilities and functions.
The CPA is an eleven week program. The instructors will all
be members of the Carmel Police Department, and they will
provide instruction and information concerning a particular area
of their profession.
Attendees will have an opportunity to experience the
"real" police department with some of the training
"hands-on".
