This probably should be moved to wiktionary.

I respectfully disagree with the previous unsigned comment. It would be nice, however, if the article had an introduction that indicated why police academies are notable, both in general and in particular cases. yoyo (talk) 19:09, 13 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Needs expansion

This article needs to be expanded on greatly. Believe it or not, the United States and Australia aren't the only places who train their police force. -- Squadcar56 19:25, 26 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Police Academy Training

I will be adding more information about the overall aspects to police training. The training obviously varies from state to state and country to country, however they have many similarities. I will do the best I can in finding the most relevant and best information about the general training in all academies. Chasearave (talk) 16:50, 19 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
