Law Enforcement Training

What to Expect

The Law Enforcement Training program at VGCC is designed to provide Sworn Law Enforcement Officers, Detention Officers, Telecommunicators and Corrections Officers with the opportunity to gain knowledge and skills based on new and existing technology. Programs are open to all Law Enforcement Agencies in the area. A broad range of Mandated and Specialty classes, based on both agency needs and new training standards, are offered during the year on the college campus and at various agency locations.

Attendance

Students who arrive late or leave early will not receive full credit for the training course. 100% attendance is required in all training courses. Attendees must bring any issued equipment needed for the course on the day it is to be utilized.

Cost

The cost for in-service training courses is FREE for certified officers affiliated with a public North Carolina Agency, otherwise you will be required to pay the designated registration fee.

Restrictions

Enrollment in these courses is restricted to Law Enforcement Officers and Criminal Justice Professionals.

Dress Code

The dress code is business casual unless course participation requires other specific attire. T-shirts and shorts are not allowed. If you wear your service weapon to training at VGCC you must display your badge also.

Cancellation Policy
