What it does
This Program is Canada's leading provider of specialized police training and executive development programs for law enforcement, criminal justice professionals and international partners. The Canadian Police College (CPC) delivers a wide range of training through in-person, online and blended learning formats. The main campus is located in Ottawa, Ontario, with a satellite campus, CPC West, at the Pacific Regional Training Centre in Chilliwack, British Columbia. Through partnerships with police agencies across Canada and abroad, the CPC also offers regional delivery options to make training accessible nationwide. Programming includes more than 60 courses and workshops across three faculties: the Police Sciences School, the Technical Crime Learning Institute and the Leadership Diversity and Inclusion Centre, which houses the Professional Development Centre for Indigenous Policing.
