South Bay has reluctantly made the business decision to discontinue presentation of its Basic Academy Modular Courses (BAM Level I, Level II and Level III). This decision is entirely driven by the State’s continuing economic budget shortfall and its effect on South Bay’s funding sources.

Our Regular Basic Police Academy intensive format course is not affected by the termination of the BAM program and remains an option for those who are committed to a career in Law Enforcement. Please check our website for those opportunities.

We regret the impact and inconvenience the cancellation of this program may have on aspiring public safety candidates. Students who have completed either Level III or Level II training, whose career goal is to become full-time peace officers, are encouraged to apply with agencies as reserve peace officers, a step toward achieving that goal.

We have notified California Post of this decision and they urge aspiring recruits to also check their website for alternatives.

We will automatically refund registration to those registered students using the original form of payment.
