Frequently Asked Questions

If I want to enroll in the peace officer basic training academy, do I need to register for and attend an information meeting? 

Students interested in Peace Officer Basic Training must first sign up and pass the entry physical conditioning test. After successful completion of the physical test, you will receive a link to schedule your mandatory information meeting. During this meeting, you will meet with the academy commander to complete all required OPOTC paperwork.

Physical conditioning entry testing must be completed within 150 days of the start of the academy in which you intend to enroll.

Why do I need to register for and attend an information meeting?

Students must complete certain requirements to enroll in the peace officer basic training academy. Information meetings are held to go over the requirements in detail. 

Examples of requirements include (but are not limited to):

  • A fingerprint background check by the state of Ohio, a check by the State of Ohio Bureau of Criminal Identification & Investigation (BCI&I) and the FBI to determine any criminal record such as felonies or any domestic violence convictions which would disqualify the student from the training. 
  • A completed pre-test screening of the physical conditioning requirements, including a signed waiver acknowledging the consequences of not passing the final physical conditioning test before the written final exam.

Are there any age requirements to take classes in the Peace Officer Basic Training program?

Students must be 18 to enroll in Peace Officer Basic Training.

If I am already a peace officer does that qualify me for college credit?

Students who are currently Ohio Certified Peace Officers may be eligible to apply credit to the peace officer basic training academy, and must provide documentation of current peace officer status.

Can I take classes online or face-to-face?

The peace officer basic training academy includes hands-on learning and face-to-face classes.

What are the physical requirements to enter the Peace Officer Basic Training program?

Students should review the Basic Training Physical Fitness Assessment Chart based upon their age and sex. The 15th percentile is the minimum entry standard to enter the Peace Officer Basic Training program or academy at COTC; however, applicants are strongly encouraged to exceed those standards. The 50th percentile is the standard to successfully exit the academy.
