The Brazoria County Sheriff’s Office Training Academy will strive to facilitate quality, modern-day instruction to keep law enforcement on the cutting edge and up to date on current trends. We are dedicated to exceeding the training standards set forth by the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement, the Texas Commission on Jail Standards, and the Texas Department of Public Safety.
