St. Lawrence County Police Academy
Since 1996, SUNY Canton College, through its Criminal Justice Curriculum, in conjunction with the David Sullivan/St. Lawrence County Law Enforcement Council, has offered the New York State Basic Course for Police Officers to those men and women who have chosen Law Enforcement as a career.
We offer the Full-Time, and Refresher courses in Basic Police Training that is fully accredited by the New York State Bureau for Municipal Police, which awards a New York Basic Police Certificate upon completion. Since 2004, we are currently one of six academies throughout New York State that have been approved by the Department of Criminal Justice Services, Office of Public Safety to offer the Pre-Employment for Basic Police Training.
Students must be citizens of the United States of America or lawfully residing within the United States of America. Students may not be convicted of a felony.
The Academy also offers Pre-employment training:
Pre-employment police basic training is an alternative to the conventional manner of conducting the Basic Course for Police Officers. The training is conducted in two phases. The first phase, pre-employment police basic training, may be attended by civilian students as well as appointed police officers. This first phase includes the vast majority of the instructional material in the Basic Course for Police Officers (BCPO). The second phase of training is presented only to sworn police officers pursuant to Title 9 of the Official Compilation of Codes, Rules and Regulations of the State of New York Part 6020 (9 NYCRR 6020).
