Overtime pay is available when required.
Paid bereavement leave. Training Chandler Police recruits attend a four month police academy and, upon completion of the academy, are A.Z.P.O.S.T. certified with state-wide authority. After the academy, Chandler officers complete a fifteen week field training program prior to assignment to solo patrol duty. Officers who are already A.Z.P.O.S.T. certified are not required to attend an academy and are placed directly into the field training program. How to Apply Applications are accepted continuously, with testing every 90 days.
