    Northwest Law Enforcement Academy was my third post-secondary experience. It has been like no other. What the Academy has to offer cannot be matched. I have met peers who have become some of my best friends. Not only that, I got an insight into Instructors’ amazing careers that they have had. I can guarantee you will not find that anywhere else. I am a visual learner and some of my favorite courses have been Criminal Investigation Procedures, Crime Scenes and Forensics, Situational Analysis, Traffic Investigations and Police Practical Exercises. Those are just a few of the many great courses at the Academy. I am also Indigenous. The Academy offers an Indigenous Awareness and Sensitivity course that I feel is relevant for those pursuing a career in Law Enforcement. One of the coolest things at the Academy is the different agencies from all over Canada that visit to recruit, as well as past graduates who stop in to share their success stories in hopes of inspiring those currently enrolled. If I could say one thing, It would be that the journey will not always be easy, as many things are in life. There will be road bumps along the way. But I promise you will have support from people who only want to see you succeed and who are rooting for you. With that being said, if you are interested in a career in Security, Corrections and/ or Policing, I strongly encourage you to take that leap. Do not wait. My only regret is I wish I would have done it sooner. If you have any questions, do not be afraid to reach out and ask. The Academy has an incredible Administration Officer who can help with whatever she can. You will not be disappointed, ***** ** ******
