The Livingston County Sheriff’s Office and the Missouri Sheriffs Association Training Academy will bring a first time opportunity to the Chillicothe area next year.

They will host a Basic Law Enforcement Academy.

Enrollment is now open. Financial Aid and College Credit is also available through Missouri State University.

Livingston County Chief Deputy Michael Claypole will be local training coordinator and various employees of the Livingston County Sheriff’s Office, MSHP, Prosecuting Attorney Adam Warren, Missouri Sheriffs Training Academy, and others will be instructors during the academy.

The part time academy class begins August 07, 2014 and ends June 05, 2015.
