General News Items:
Candidates for the FBI National Academy- The height/weight requirements to attend the Academy are being strictly adhered to. If your department is considering someone as a candidate it is very important that this person currently be at the height/weight that is required at the time of application. If a candidate fails to meet these requirements, it could result in North Carolina losing a slot in upcoming sessions. If you have any questions regarding these requirements please contact John Letterhos, the Training Coordinator at the FBI-Charlotte Office.
