Community Police Academy

September 10 @ 8:00 am - September 15 @ 5:00 pm

We are now accepting applications for the Fall 2026 session (September 10 – November 14, 2026).

Interested in learning more about local law enforcement? The Community Police Academy (formerly Citizens Police Academy) is designed to give participants a glimpse behind the badge and to provide information about training, policies, and the many units and divisions within the Fairfax County Police Department.

The Fairfax County Police Department seeks people from a wide variety of cultures and backgrounds when selecting participants for its Community Police Academy. Candidates from different ethnicities, professions, cultural backgrounds, orientations, age groups, and communities throughout Fairfax County are encouraged to apply in order to enrich class discussions and strengthen community relationships.
