Nassau County Executive Laura Curran and Police Commissioner Patrick J. Ryder will be hosting the official groundbreaking ceremony for the new Nassau County Training and Intelligence Center in Garden City.

 Nassau County Police Department is the 13th largest police department in the country, and has not had its own training facility in over 37 years.

Since 1982, the NCPD has been shuttled around the county to various vacant spaces. The new permanent location will be a modern academic and physical training facility as well as intelligence/counterterrorism specialized unit. The new Academy will replace the current one located in the old Hawthorne Elementary school in Massapequa Park.  This Academy will provide the NCPD and the Sheriff’s Department with a state of the art facility to properly train officers in the most current law enforcement methods. Other municipal police departments including federal, state and local agencies will also be able to use this facility.
