I have been interested in becoming a LEO for many years, and now I decided to go with that career path. I don't know exactly where to start, so I'll throw out a few questions I hope to find answers to:
1. What education/requirements do I need? I assume I'll need to go to a police academy. Does anybody know which academy is closest to West Chester, PA?
2. After graduating police academy, am I able to choose whether I want to be a township/local policeman or a State policeman?
3. What is the average starting salary? Does this depend on location? If so, I am in the West Chester, PA area.
Thanks! :coolman:
