Under five years of oversight by PFM Group Consulting, the academy is overhauling its curriculum and policies to meet national best practices, addressing systemic issues like outdated facilities, high staff turnover, and ineffective training. Colonel Geoffrey Noble vows to implement all 103 recommendations, prioritizing 22 critical changes before admitting new recruits. With experienced consultants monitoring outcomes — including injury rates, attrition, and performance — and public reporting required, this marks a major step toward accountability and transformation in how future officers are trained, promising safer streets and stronger communities.
