Allan Hancock College Public Safety educational programs comprise of Police (Police Academy, administration of justice, advanced officer training) and Fire Technology (fire science, fire academies, wild land fire, environmental technology, emergency medical services). These programs are currently housed in the most utilized facilities of the district at the Santa Maria Campus. Existing buildings are not DSA approved and are not up to building codes and standards.
The new public safety complex will address the classroom and primary laboratory needs of all public safety programs at Allan Hancock College. In addition, it will have shared administrative spaces, locker rooms, apparatus/vehicle storage, and support spaces. The project will also incorporate skill training facilities which they currently do not have but are essential to the two programs. These skill training facilities include a burn tower, a shooting range, a scenario village, a fitness room, and more adequate outdoor training grounds. A new 1.3-mile Emergency Vehicle Operations Course (EVOC) and high speed course will also be provided for training which is essential to the program.
