It's a well known fact that continued education as a law enforcement officer is a must. Laws change, criteria for investigations change and new instruments have come along to assist in those investigations. Lake Lure Police Department encourages an officer's continued education and while some classes are required, there are some officers who choose to work at obtaining extensive education, which in addition earns them desired certificates.
Officer Chris Shuford continues to set the mark with these desired certificates.
In the latter months of 2016, Officer Shuford completed his Criminal Investigation Certificate Program by completing 500 hours of education.
February of 2017 Officer Shuford obtained both his Intermediate Law Enforcement Certificate and the Traffic Enforcement and Investigation Certificate.
And if that weren't enough to say "Great Job!", Officer Shuford continued on and was presented in March, by Lake Lure Police Chief Sean Humphries, his Advanced Law Enforcement Certificate.
All certificates, highly sought after by law enforcement officers. Officer Shuford's education is a dynamic plus to the Town of Lake Lure.
Congratulations and Great Job Officer Shuford!
