The management of the Police Academy of the Czech Republic in Prague believes the primary purpose of its activity is to maintain the university's high level of prestige, even in the competitive environment of other colleges. The Police Academy is a university of the highest standard, a center of education, theoretical knowledge, and creative activity. The most striking proof of this is that the Police Academy provides high-quality, respected education, which attracts a continually growing interest in studies. Despite a demanding enrolment procedure, the number of applicants is higher from year to year and exceeds the school's capacity several times.
The Police Academy reacts quickly to changes in the security situation, while systematically evaluating and innovating study programs, modernizing forms of teaching, promoting a combination of learning and work experience in security corps, and developing lifelong learning programs and scientific research.
Lessons are held in traditional classrooms equipped with above-standard computer technology for lectures in academic fields and in individual classrooms that are only typical for police academies. Students are also taught in studies with projection technology and video simulators and technical, chemical and crime laboratories. Last but not least, they also make use of a sports complex. It is logical that, besides theoretical preparation, high demands are also placed on students' physical fitness. Therefore, it is no coincidence that there are not only international sports representatives among the ranks of students but also top models.
The school's prestige, even at an international level, is borne out by the high level of interest from abroad in international exchange programs for students and teachers, participation in joint research projects as well as the multitude of conferences and meetings that the Police Academy of the Czech Republic in Prague has been holding up to now directly on its premises. The reputation that the Police Academy has attained is the result of intensive work by academic employees, ranging from rectors, vice-rectors, and lecturers to other employees, who do not directly influence teaching but who nonetheless have a considerable influence on the performances of students and academic workers.
