What's New?
The Madison Police Department is currently accepting applications for our 2013 academy class.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our office at (608) 266-4190.
Laterals? The Madison Police Department is considering the possibility of having an "accelerated" academy exclusively for veteran police officers (i.e., three or more years of continuous and full-time law enforcement experience in patrol). Under this pilot program (contingent on the number of qualified candidates who express an interest and funding considerations), a veteran police officer would attend our Academy (taught in-house by MPD Training Staff, non-residential, Monday-Friday, 8a-4p, pay and benefits provided) for only 10 weeks prior to participation in a condensed field training program before moving seamlessly to a position in Patrol Services.
No law enforcement experience? We are also accepting applications now for a hire date in the Fall of 2013. No prior law enforcement experience is needed.
