The Kentucky Law Enforcement Explorer Academy (KLEEA) was established in 2007 to train Police Explorers across the state of Kentucky and surrounding states about a career in the law enforcement field.

The Academy acts as a basic training academy for the explorers where the participate in classroom and practical exercises. The different training the explorers receive range from Crisis Negotiation, Active Shooter, Domestic Violence, Defensive Tactics, Traffic Stops, Collision Investigation, and Report Writing.

The explorers also do physical training every morning where they work on sprinting, core exercises and prepare for the state Police Officers Profession Standards Physical Agility Test that they complete the last day of the academy.

The Last day of KLEEA the explorers march in a parade escorted by the explorer honor guard and police cars from the various agencies attending followed by a banquet where the graduating explorers are recognized in front of their family, friends and peers.

KLEEA is not for everybody but is a fun time and a great learning experience.
