Character Counts
This class is designed to teach Recruits how to improve the society around them by first enhancing their own ethics and decision-making skills. The class revolves around the Six Pillars of Character – Trustworthiness, Respect, Responsibility, Fairness, Caring, and Citizenship. At the end of this instructional series, Cadet Recruits have a stronger sense of what they believe and how they can use that knowledge to positively impact their own communities.
Drill and Facing Movements
One of the most important parts of being a Recruit is learning to work as a team. During their time in the Academy, Recruits develop teamwork through military drill and marching. The various exercises and movements require that each Recruit cease to focus on working as an individual and instead, synchronize their movements to all of those around them so that they all move as one.
Criminal Law
After graduating from the Academy, some Cadets have the opportunity to work alongside sworn officers at their division's front desk, traffic or an assignment in Communications. Understanding the law is key for Cadets who want to work in these and other assignments, that stress their understanding of the law.
Public Speaking
Instructors will teach Recruits the important and necessary art of public speaking by giving them the opportunity to present on a variety of topics. They learn to speak in front of groups, organize and present ideas logically and convincingly and to listen carefully to the ideas of others.
Conflict Resolution
Conflict is an issue everyone encounters in their everyday lives and it is important that it is dealt with effectively and resolutely. Cadets will increase their awareness of conflict and learn techniques to resolve it.
Money Management
Cadets will learn the importance of saving, making sound spending decisions, and being fiscally responsible.
Life Skills

Cadets are instructed on the benefits of healthy eating and maintaining a fitness regimen that will contribute to a healthy lifestyle.
SID
Scientific Investigation Division is LAPD's version of “CSI.” Criminalists from SID teach Recruits courses on evidence collection, lifting fingerprints, and making plaster molds of footprints. Through these courses, Recruits learn about the importance of observation skills and preserving scientific evidence at a crime scene.
Forced Option Simulator
The Forced Option Simulator, or “FOS”, allows Recruits to work through various patrol scenarios and use their own understanding of the law and the tools available to them to take decisive action. Time spent working with the FOS machine will give Recruits their best glimpse of what it is like to work under the same pressures as an officer and make split-second decisions.
