LOMPOC, Calif.- Allan Hancock College in Lompoc is now enrolling for Public and Safety Training Programs that will begin in the summer.

“If you have goals and ambitions to be in public safety, you don't have to wait until you're twenty one to be a law enforcement officer you can start off in corrections you can start off in dispatch there's so many areas," said Allan Hancock College Coordinator, Neil LeMaire.

The programs Allan Hancock College offers at its Lompoc campus include law enforcement, emergency medical services, fire academy and more.

“For those individuals completing their senior year in high school, and they are thinking of what they want to do and maybe they don't want to necessarily start college right now they can go to the dispatch academy. Before they know it they could have a job," said LeMaire.

Some of these training programs offer certifications that qualify cadets to work in public safety agencies throughout California.
