Current standards require candidates to complete nearly 800 hours of police academy training before joining the Department. Once hired, these officers must complete three weeks of orientation and another 14 weeks in a field training program before being allowed to perform the duties of a sworn law enforcement officer on their own.

The Palm Bay Police Department only accepts applications during official posting periods.
