Attending FBI Citizens’ Academy

Dear Mr. Storms, I am pleased to advise you that you have been selected to attend the spring session of the 2009 Federal Bureau of Investigation's Citizens' Academy.

After a year of waiting, I was selected to attend the FBI Citizens' Academy. Having first heard of the program thru InfraGard, I was immediately interested in becoming part of the growing community of citizens who get to learn first hand how the FBI functions.

In the San Francisco Bay Area region, the FBI currently hosts 2 sessions a year with an average class size of 30. Attendees are local business, civic and religious leaders that have been nominated by Bureau employees and Academy graduates. The program consists of 5 consecutive weekly evening classes and a "Day at the Range" with the members of the SWAT team.

I'm looking forward to attending the Academy and reporting back to the community.
