The Basic Law Enforcement Training Program is a 739-hour program designed to prepare entry level individuals with the cognitive and physical skills to become certified police officers and deputy sheriffs in the state of North Carolina. We currently schedule three classes a year. A day class is normally scheduled to start in January, a night class in May, and a second day class scheduled in June.

Persons desiring to become sworn law enforcement officers in North Carolina must successfully complete this course in its entirety and pass a state exam. To qualify for admission, an individual must meet the same requirements as those mandated by the NC Criminal Justice Standards/NC Sheriffs' Standards Commission for a sworn law enforcement officer.
