The Gwinnett County Police Department stepped out and became a leader among police departments in Georgia by deciding to bring the training of its officer in house half a century ago.

On Oct. 10, 1972, Gwinnett became the first police department in the state to operate its own training academy. The Gwinnett County Police Training Center wasn’t a big academy at first. It held its first classes in the chapel at the Gwinnett Correctional Institute, and it took six years before it moved into its own facility.

And, 50 years later, the Gwinnett County Police Department remains a leader among law enforcement agencies in the state.
