Cadets graduate MN Peace Officer Skills Program

Fifteen students graduated from Central Lakes College’s MN Peace Officer Skills Program recently.

These students have completed two years of general education and Peace Officer studies, and now have been through an intense eight-week training program. This unique program allows students to get in the driver’s seat of new, state-of-the-art squad cars that come with the same software that officers use on the streets today. Students are also trained in firearms, defense tactics, using a Taser, chemical aerosol, radar and using LIDAR.
