Annual In-Service Police Training

Each year every police officer in Pennsylvania is required to complete 12 hours of in-service training on various topics selected by the Municipal Police Officer Education & Training Commission (MPOETC).  While MPOETC only requires 12 hours of in-service training annually, the State College Police Department requires every police officer to complete 32 hours of in-service training annually.  Annual in-service training is conducted in January and February. 

Find out more information about MPOETC here. 

Below is a listing of in-service training topics for the past five (5) years that includes both the MPOETC required courses (12 hours) as well as some of the additional courses the State College Police added to the 32-hours of in-service training required of every State College Police officer every year.
