Skill’s law enforcement career began in 1991, and he is now one of 47,898 to have graduated from the program since it began in 1935.

He received training in leadership, psychology, officer involved shootings, drug enforcement strategies, and communications.

“It has definitely been one of the highlights of my career and I look forward to utilizing the knowledge and experience that I gained, from not only the classroom, but from my fellow classmates, to better serve the community,” Skill said.

Taylor commended Skill for his leadership and dedication, which he said improves the excellent standing of the Prosecutor’s Office in the Law Enforcement Community.

This session consisted of 215 men
and women from 49 states, 26 international countries, three military
organizations and four federal civilian organizations.

The National Academy Program,
held at the FBI Academy, offers 11 weeks of advanced
investigative, management and fitness training for selected officers with proven records as professionals within their agencies.
