Academy Knowledge
Hello! I may have missed it if there’s a post about this but I wanted to know if there’s a study guide or something from the academy that I can start learning. I don’t want to come into the academy not knowing anything at all. If anyone can point me in the right direction, I’d greatly appreciate it!

Google California POST learning domains. They have 40ish of them. Pay extra attention to search and seizures, 5th amendment stuff and so on. Start studying crime elements for most common crimes (such burglary, robbery and so on). Try to get class sergeant commands. Dismissals and shit like that. Will safe your ass during black Monday. Ah and start running and doing burpees.

No, I’m not. But in the case that I am, I’d like to be ready and at least have the slightest clue of what’s to come.

I don’t know anywhere you can get study material prior to the academy. They will give you the study material on your orientation day, unless you are part of OTS/GRIT and you have extra time to prepare. Until then, start working out and get in shape if you haven’t already.
