Enroll in the 2024 Citizen Public Safety Academy to find out! Apply online now through January 31, 2024, but don’t delay as space is limited so register early to guarantee your spot.

The Citizen Public Safety Academy is an 8-week program that takes residents behind the scenes with our public safety departments to gain a deeper understanding of and appreciation for all they do to create safe communities where families and businesses can thrive. During the course, participants will spend three weeks with the nationally accredited Concord Police Department, three weeks with the ISO Class 1 Concord Fire Department, meet with the city’s Emergency Management Coordinator, and spend one week with the Communications Department which includes the city’s 911 telecommunications, emergency radios, and fiber network. The course concludes with a graduation ceremony to be held at the police department.
