If you are employed by a department which operates its own academy (or contracts those services to an outside organization) you will receive the basic salary of a police recruit. Some departments, to escape the financial burden and cost to the taxpayers, will require you to pay your own way through an accredited private teaching facility and then will hire you after your successful completion. Some of these departments may offer to reimburse you for all or part of your out-of-pocket tuition if you sign an employment agreement with them to guarantee you will remain employed by them for a minimum number of years.
