Employment as a law enforcement officer may require additional training as determined by your state’s Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST). The criminal justice program at Globe University/Minnesota School of Business does not fulfill Minnesota POST requirements; however, it does qualify in some other states. Our program staff can advise you and help you identify suitable training opportunities.
