[QUOTE="AdvantageR1, post: 1852517, member: 851"] ZG, you have some very good points why you should go for a different degree other than a COPS program. I do not have a COPS program degree, but have considered it, because I could do it while I work and still obtain an associates. I could always turn that in to a business administration degree later. The plus side to having a COPS degree is that a smaller agency that can not hold a CLEET academy (Very few can at this time. Norman, OKC, OHP, and maybe Edmond and Tulsa. I do not know of any others off the top of my head). For any other agency the fact that they can hire you, send you to CLEET to take the written test, and then potentially send you straight out in to the field is a great benefit right now. If I remember correctly CLEET is 15 weeks right now. That is a lot of money that an agency would have to pay someone that they are unable to use during that time, well except on weekends. [/QUOTE]
