Eastern Florida State College’s certificate programs provide minimum standards of education for officers as required by the Criminal Justice Standards and Training Commission, Florida Department of Law Enforcement.
EFSC’s Law Enforcement Academy partners with the Brevard Police Testing and Selection Center (BPTC) to select students for Academy classes.
The BPTC performs all screening and testing verification because Academy applicants must first take the Criminal Justice Basic Abilities Test (CJBAT), a requirement of the State of Florida to enter any law enforcement academy, or must qualify for a CJBAT exemption. During the screening process, applicants must also pass the Physical Abilities Test and undergo a background check.
