Officials with the West Palm Beach Police Department are traveling to New York City in a recruitment effort.
The agency is sponsoring the Equivalency of Training certification for eligible out of state and federal officers seeking Florida certification and employment.
The program is a week-long course offered at Palm Beach State College, designed to streamline the transition for qualified New York police officers.
Eligible candidates may also qualify for a $5,000 Florida relocation incentive through a statewide law enforcement recruitment initiative.
Members of the recruitment team will meet with interested candidates in Staten Island next month.
