Basic Law Enforcement Training BLET

Are you the type of person who can take control, be assertive when necessary, and enjoy teamwork? If so, perhaps you should consider a career in law enforcement. This is a career where everyday is different. The change of pace can be exhilarating.

Law enforcement is a rewarding but challenging profession. Do you have the strength of character to be on the frontlines, to protect the innocent and to enforce the law fairly? To prepare for a career in law enforcement, enroll in Basic Law Enforcement Training (BLET).

The CCCC BLET program recruits qualified students for a comprehensive training program on the basic knowledge and skills needed to obtain certification as an inexperienced law enforcement officer.

The program is offered in both Harnett County (28-week evening course) and Lee County (16-week day and/or 28-week evening course) and is occasionally offered in Chatham County (combination evening and weekend format).

The program utilizes State commission-mandated topics and methods of instruction. Students learn about first responder procedures along with proper procedures for searches, patrol, and criminal investigation. They take courses in both civil and criminal law. Students must successfully complete and pass all units of study including the certification examination mandated by the North Carolina Criminal Justice Education and Training Standards Commission. Upon successful completion of the examination, students will receive a curriculum certificate.

Graduates of the program can find employment in any North Carolina geographical location (plus other states which recognize North Carolina certification). The titles under which a graduate may find a job include deputy sheriff, police officer, company police, and security officer.

The Basic Law Enforcement Training application requirements are extensive, and must be complete before students can be admitted to the program.
