The Illinois State Police Academy uses full-time certified officers from outside law enforcement agencies to serve as Supervisors during 480-Hour Basic Training Courses. This provides the officer an opportunity to gain valuable supervisory experience and allows law enforcement agencies who choose the ISP Academy to obtain an inside view of the overall training as well as the individual performance of their trainees. For more information regarding the benefits to providing a Supervisor, please contact Master Sergeant Whitecotton. Thank you for your support of Illinois State Police training programs.
