SACRAMENTO — On Mar 9, Governor Gavin Newsom congratulated a newly graduating class of 105 CHP officers who were sworn in this week and are being deployed across California. Marking the end of an intensive 26-week training, the new officers were sworn in by CHP Commissioner Sean Duryee during a graduation ceremony at the West Sacramento CHP Academy Friday.
“All Californians should be proud of these new officers as they enter a fulfilling career to keep California, and our families, safe. Building trust and safety across communities, they represent the best of the Golden State,” said Governor Gavin Newsom.
The CHP is the largest public-facing state law enforcement agency in the United States with over 6,500 sworn officers assigned across California. As part of California’s $1.1 billion investment to improve public safety, in 2022, CHP launched a multiyear recruitment campaign to fill 1,000 officer positions by hiring qualified individuals from California’s diverse communities. The CHP has seen a significant increase in recent applications and has expanded training operations three-fold for the first time in its history to accommodate the increased interest.
