The five-week program entails lectures, presentations, as well as hands-on activities to teach and inform its participants the many facets of law enforcement and introduce the police department that serves them. This stimulating and informative program will give each enrollee a better sense of the Lebanon Police Department and the issues concerning everyday operations. Citizens will also have a better understanding of their role in the Community Oriented Policing philosophy. The purpose of the Citizen's Police Academy is to foster better communications between citizens and police through education.
