Citizens Police Academy

Citizens Police Academy logo

The UNH Citizens Police Academy (CPA) is an informational program designed to bring our community members information and demonstrations from campus, county, state and federal law enforcement professionals. Historically, the CPA has attracted students, staff and community members who are interested in a better understanding of the University Police and police work in general. Many of our graduates have gone on to become law enforcement professionals.

UNH Citizen’s Police Academy instructors, who represent a wide variety of law enforcement agencies, bring their education and experience to the program. Past presentations have included a bomb technician, police K-9, homeland security, a visit to the county jail and a certified polygraph examiner.   

Enrollment for the Spring 2024 Citizen's Police Academy is now open!  In order to enroll, you must complete the on-line application.

This 12 week academy will begin February 7 and be held Wednesdays (no class during Spring Break) from 7pm to 9pm at the UNH Police Department, 18 Waterworks Rd, Durham.
