Houston Police Academy

The Houston Police Department's Training Academy offers a comprehensive six-month academic and physical training program designed to prepare cadets for a successful career in law enforcement. Cadets earn a salary while training, with the expectation that they do not hold other employment or attend educational classes during this intensive period.

Upon completion of the academy, graduates must serve a six-month probation period and participate in a Field Training Officer Program that lasts 12 to 16 weeks. Following this training, new officers begin their career as patrol officers, ready to serve the community.
