In 2026, the Public Works and Parks and Recreation Academies will not be offered. They are on hiatus while we update the curriculum for each academy. Moving forward, the Authority is expanding opportunities for members to attend by increasing the number of participants able to attend each academy. Additionally, some academies—including Parks and Recreation and Public Works—will transition to a new schedule, being offered every other year. These two academies will return in 2027, providing members with an enhanced and updated training experience.

The 2026 academy schedule is available here, and the 2027 academy schedule will be available in the fall of 2026.
