If you are a returning student and currently working in the criminal justice field or if you have already completed a basic police academy in California, we encourage you to make an appointment with the Criminal Justice Education and Training Program Coordinator to see if your basic law enforcement academy class can substitute for one or more of the certificate or degree requirements.
