    not that i want to start any rumors, but was just curious if the ones i have heard are true or not.

    since last week when governer patrick released his budget plan and he said he wants to close the norfolk institution, i have heard that the next class that is scheduled to start in may has been canceled. not sure if this would be 311 or 312 since there is a class of maintance personal going to start in march.

    anyone have any knowledge of this?

    Quick questions guys, if you fail to sign the certification list, will u get a card for the next class?
  6. USAF3424 MassCops Member

    Yes, I have received 3 cards from the March 2010 test.
  7. mdinicola86 New Member

    You guys I am in 310 and last I heard about a week ago there will be an academy in may and two more in 2013
  9. USAF3424 MassCops Member

    I have never signed the list. I have the opportunity where I am at to become a University PO so I have held off on the DOC.

    Cards definitely have been sent out. I have not heard anything about cancelling any academies.

    BayState is in Devals plan not Norfolk. That is just that a plan. Deval also wants to open 2 (possible) prisons, 1 female Pre-release and 1 ADL unit. I do not see any of this happening.

    Interviews are being held the week of Feb 27th.

    Honestly - I wouldn't get too worked up about academies. DOC is the largest sector of Law Enforcement in this state, I believe some 4,000 strong ( not positive though). Academies will be constant due to typical attrition rates eg, retirement, deaths, firings, guys leaving for greener pastures.....So long as there are prisons in mass, there will always be plenty of CO academies....

    Anyone waiting on back ground check when do they usually cal ya ? Hopeing to get in the may academy if it still happens that is :/
  15. DevaRoh MassCops Member

    My background was a couple weeks after the interview. If they want you in the may class then they will do things fast. After the background check they still have the psych test and evaluation as well as drug test.

    K haven't heard anything yet do I guess I should take the march exam:/
  17. knucklehead MassCops Member

    It wouldn't hurt to take the March exam if you already signed up for it.
  18. MaHopeful MassCops Member

    It's been pretty quiet here, so I guess I'll do an update. I'm not quite sure how the process is going on at the moment, but I heard a tentative date of June 18th for the academy.
  19. bigdman1986 MassCops Member

    for the recent co exam in march? or is this based off the old list?
  20. MaHopeful MassCops Member

    This is based on the old list. The scores from the March Exam has not been release yet. It takes about 3 months or so before they are usually release.
  21. Chuck New Member

    Best of luck to the guys that get in.
  22. MaHopeful MassCops Member

    Good Luck to those taking the Psych Test today.
  23. cal1nu MassCops Member

    Did you guys take the Psych Test at Framingham, Shirley or Worcester?
  24. MaHopeful MassCops Member

    I talked to one recruit and he informed me that he was taking it in Worcester.

    Just remember that you don't like to torture small animals, and you will be ok.
