Nicolet College’s Law Enforcement Recruit Academy recently graduated nine students, each now eligible to be certified by the Wisconsin Department of Justice as law enforcement officers in the state.

The 720-hour program includes a mix of classroom and hands-on scenario training. Many of the recent graduates are already employed by area departments. The other are expected to be soon.
