3PURPOSEThe purpose of the Academy, as defined by the law which created it(Act #1186 R. 1358, Sections 23-23-40 fL, S. C. Code of Laws),is toupgrade criminal justice by establishing selection standards andproviding a unified training program for law enforcement personnelwhile maintaining instructional facilities for the other branches ofcriminal justice (judicial and correctional). To fulfill this objective,the act provided for a central training facility, an eleven-mefl.lbergoverning council to formulate policies, and a system supported bypenalty assessments to finance operational costs. To insure statewideparticipation by law enforcement personnel, the act mandatedcertification (which requires basic training) for all law enforcementofficers hired after January 1,1972 by departments employing morethan four full-time officers or located in towns having populationsgreater than 2,500.The act has been amended several times-in 1971 to add onemember (FBI Special Agent in Charge) to the Training Council andto make the financing system permanent; in 1974 to provide for aLaw Enforcement Hall of Fame to be erected 'and operated inconjunction with the Academy; in 1976 to reduce from 10 years to fiveyears the time prior to employment during which there should benoconviction for D.V.I. or Leaving Scene of Accident. An amendmentproposed for the 1978-79 fiscal year was passed, effective July 1,1978,which (1) eliminates exemptions from training for police chiefs, (2)eliminates exemptions from basic training for officers of smalldepartments, and (3) raises the rate of penalty assessments.On July 12, 1978, an act took effect providing for the appointment of Reserve Police Officers by department chiefs. Beforeassuming their duties these reserve officers shall: (1) Take the oath or'office as required by law, (2) Be bonded, in an amount determined bythe governing body of the county, municipality or other politicalentity which shall be 'not less than 1,500 and (3) Successfullycomplete a course of training specified by the S.C. Law EnforcementTraining Council and endorsed by the chiefs who appoint them.South Carolina Criminal Justice Academy is setting new trends irrtraining. Here, instruction is offered for personnel in all three realmsof criminal justice-in law enforcement, in which violators areremoved from society; in judicial, in which they are tried andsentenced; and in correctional, in which they are prepared for returnto society. This system of training has brought national recognitionto the Academy and to South Carolina as well.

8HISTORY, 1968-19771968 marked the beginning of law enforcement training in SouthCarolina. That year, the state legislature appropriated 30,000 toSLED for the estahlishment of SOlTTH CAROLINA POLICEACADEMY under the direction of FBI veteran Clifford A. Moyer. Afour-week basic law enforcement training program began and washeld at SLED with a storage area serving as a cla! sroom and a formervenereal disease clinic serving as a dormitory. This 30-studentarrangement soon proved to be inadequate, so in 1970, the law waspasseo that created SOUTH CAROLINA CRIMINAL JUSTICEACADEMY.The construction of the 2.2 million dollar Academy was financedby state and federal funds: the latter were provided by LEAP and theHighway Safety Program. At present, the Academy can sleep 186persons and seat 350 students in classrooms. Facilities also include acafeteria and dining room adjoining a reading lounge equipped withtwo color TV's and billiards, a library, a training tank, and agymnasium complete with body-building equipment.Classes began in 1972 at the present academy site. Because fourweeks of basic law enforcement training was insufficient, plans weremade and carried out to increase the program to 5 weeks in 1971, to 6weeks in 1973, to 8 weeks in 1975, and to 10 weeks in 1978. TheTraining D ivi ion of the S. C. Department of Corrections moved intothe Academy in 1972 and has held its instructional programs hereever since. The Probation, Parole, and Pardon Board, theDepartment of Youth Services, Juvenile Placement and Aftercare,and the Judicial Education program also conduct their trainingsessions at the Academy. Similarly, the S. C. Wildlife and MarineResources Department and the S. "C. Highway Patrol carryoninstructional programs regularly at the Academy.The Academy has developed various training aids to insure wellrounded criminal justice preparation for its students. To assiststudent in coping with future law enforcement situations, a job.related obstacle course is now encountered by each trainee. Since 1974a precision driving range, 1.3 miles in length, has been used forseveral areas of officer training. During fiscal year 1977-1978. aclassroom and repair garage were added to the range site, whichpresently includes three mock-up rooms of an ordinary home, whereCrisis lntervention problems are practiced. A small log cabin bankbuilding, also located at the range, was donated to the CriminalJustice Adademy during 1976. It is used in simulated robberies,
9burglaries, hostage situations, and other offenses. In addition to theprecision c1:iving range, the Academy also operates a 50 firing pointpistol range, with a classroom and target sforage area.lOAO . ODOCK.IUI" " .
