Gov. Beshear, Department of Criminal Justice Training Announce 24 Officers Graduate from the Academy of Police Supervision
On April 17, Gov. Andy Beshear and the Department of Criminal Justice Training (DOCJT) announced that 24 law enforcement officers from agencies across the commonwealth graduated from the Academy of Police Supervision Class 105.
“Law enforcement is one of the highest callings,” Gov. Beshear said. “All of Kentucky thanks you for your leadership and commitment to building safer communities across our commonwealth.”
The Academy of Police Supervision, also called the sergeant’s academy, is a three-week, 122-hour training program targeted for newly promoted sergeants or officers who are on their agency’s promotion list to become sergeants. The academy was launched in 2003 as a leadership course aimed at developing and shaping current and future leaders in law enforcement agencies across the commonwealth.
The program provides a deep dive into how to positively influence groups of people, as well as how to apply situational leadership, demonstrate an understanding of constitutional and administrative law, emotional and social intelligence, ethical decision-making, problem-solving, emotional survival and public speaking.
“Your class represents law enforcement agencies from across the commonwealth and a diverse range of disciplines,” said DOCJT Commissioner Mike Bosse. “I am proud to congratulate these leaders on earning their APS pin and encourage them to lead with purpose while remaining humble.”
