All applicants must live, work or go to school in Wheeling and be at least 18 years old.
A background check will be conducted on each applicant. The Wheeling Fire and Police Department reserves the right to deny entry to the Citizens Fire & Police Academy based on the findings of the background check.
I have read the program description for the Wheeling Citizens Fire & Police Academy and understand that this training will not authorize me to carry a firearm or exercise peace officer powers if I am allowed to participate.
