BASIC PEACE OFFICER TRAINING
The Basic Peace Officer curriculum meets all the required standards for basic law
enforcement training in Ohio. The students are provided with quality instruction
in all subject matters prescribed by the Ohio Peace Officer Training Commission
(O.P.O.T.C.). Additional advanced training is provided in several subject areas
critical to the successful job performance of the modern law enforcement officer.
A special emphasis is placed on human relations training and on developing the
officer’s most frequently used skills. Experts in the many fields of criminal justice are
brought to the academy to present qualified instruction in their critical subject areas.
Every officer is given specialized instruction in emergency vehicle operations,
firearms proficiency and safety, self-defense tactics, physical conditioning,
standardized field sobriety testing and speed measuring devices.
All applicants must be sponsored by a law enforcement agency and be a full-time
employee of the agency at the time of appointment to the program. Applications for
Basic Peace Officer Classes will be made available to agencies approximately 90
days prior to the class commencing. Class size will be determined by our ability to fill
the appropriate instructor to student ratios to optimize training. Classes will be filled
based on the order that completed packets are received by agencies. In addition,
a physical fitness assessment must be completed. Mandatory physical fitness
standards have been established by the O.P.O.T.C. and these are prerequisities for
admission into the Basic Peace Officer training program. Applicants must now be
evaluated by the school commander and a certified physical fitness instructor for
strict compliance prior to the scheduled Opening School Audit. If the applicant does
not meet the minimum criteria, their continuance in the training program will not be
considered and they will not be added to the current roster.
Each student must bring a service handgun and 1,500 rounds of reduced lead or lead
free pistol ammunition. This ammunition should be of a weight in grains comparable
to the agency’s duty ammunition. In addition, each student must bring an agency
shotgun if other than a Remington 870, 250 rounds of buckshot ammunition and
100 rounds of slug ammunition.
