This 12-week program provides interested citizens with an inside look at the training methods of law enforcement and the day-to-day operations of the sheriff's office. This allows the community to gain a better understanding of activities from a deputy or communications officer point of view.

Various members of the staff give weekly lectures on their duties covering various topics from dispatching, civil process, booking & processing to inmate programs, patrol functions, and investigative techniques. Hands-on training is provided in firearms, crime scene search, and traffic stops.
