The San Francisco Police Department Regional Training Facility is considered a local government agency certified by the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training (P.O.S.T.) One of its primary functions is to present all components of the Basic Police Officer Course. The goal of the Basic Course is to prepare recruit officers mentally and physically to advance into the Department’s Field Training Program and to prepare them to assume the responsibilities and execute the duties of a peace officer in our community. The Department’s Basic Course consists of 1080 hours of instruction. This currently exceeds P.O.S.T. minimum standards by almost 400 hours. The Academy also conducts a Citizen’s Academy Course for members of the community who wish to survey what our police officers experience in their training.
