Being able to compare that to other agencies from across the nation is so unique and it\u2019s going to guide my decision-making from here on out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Freeman iss only the second law enforcement professional from UCFPD to attend the FBI National Academy; former UCF Police Deputy Chief and current UCF Chief Information Security Information Officer David Zambri was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/news\/ucfpds-zambri-graduates-from-fbi-national-academy\/\">the first to attend<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Freeman joined UCFPD as a civilian Community Service Officer in 2005 and was sponsored by UCFPD to attend the police academy in 2006. Since being sworn in immediately after graduating from the academy, he\u2019s worked his way up the ranks from patrol officer to his current role as major, where he oversees patrol and operations for the agency. Freeman is also a UCF alumnus with a <a>bachelor\u2019s degree in criminal justice<\/a> and a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/degree\/police-leadership-certificate\/\">graduate certificate in police leadership<\/a>. He plans to continue working toward is master\u2019s degree after his FBI National Academy credits, which were through the University of Virginia, are transferred to UCF.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJust the close quarters of being around 250 other law enforcement executives from across the world was so incredibly rewarding and impactful,\u201d says Freeman. \u201cBut it still made me want to come right back to UCF and put everything I learned into practice.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>Scott Freeman \u201911<\/strong> is the second UCF Police Department officer to
