The Frederick Police Department strives daily to enhance public safety in partnership with our community. One of the greatest ways we do that is through educating the public on our functions as a police agency at our Citizens Police Academy.
We invite each of you to enroll in this year’s Citizens Police Academy. It is a 7-week program designed to give a broad overview of the many functions of The Frederick Police Department.
The Citizens Police Academy gives participants instruction in the many aspects of modern law enforcement such as uniformed patrol, criminal investigations, undercover operations, tactical operations, and various other law enforcement functions. There are numerous interactive and hands-on segments such as defensive tactics demonstrations and field sobriety.
