I have a question about the California Highway Patrol and how to become a CHP officer. i already talked to SDPD representatives, and they said my best bet to become an SDPD officer is to major in criminal justice, attain my associate's degree, then enter the police academy.

but i'd much rather be CHP, and i was wondering how i might go about that? could i do it the same way, IE majoring in criminal justice, then go to a CHP academy? I'm not really sure if the CHP even has an academy, or how i would go about getting into one if one exists.

any help is appreciated, thanks alot fellas.
