For nearly 37 years, the Las Vegas Metro Explorer program has been teaching young Las Vegans the basics of law enforcement.

From crime scene investigation to policing, corrections and dispatch, residents aged 16 to 20 can choose one of four programs to dedicate as little as six months or as much as four years to get up-close training.

Explorers are divided into four phases, with Phase 1 explorers being the newest young officers and Phase 4 the most experienced. Phase 1 Explorers spend their first six months in the classroom, studying police vocabulary and memorizing radio codes. By Phase 4, Explorers perform mock SWAT operations and join on-duty officers for police car ride-alongs. Semesters last six months each, and Explorers can advance up to two phases a year.

With more than 60 in this semesters Phase 1 group, Metros most popular Explorers course of study by far is policing.

Brittany Pool, 16, is one of them. The junior at Veterans Tribute Career &Technical Academy said her mother spent time in prison. Knowing that pushes her to keep herself and her family on the straight and narrow.

Im inspired to do better for myself and for them as well, Pool said.

Others, like Brandon Wolden, said they joined to pursue a passion for public service.

A hopeful Army Reservist and aspiring police officer, Wolden, 19, hopes his Explorer experience eventually will give him an upper hand in Metros academy.

Its going to be second nature by the time we get there, he said. The stuff you learn here is invaluable.

But its not all roses for every Explorer.

Waynesburg University will host its 10th annual Crime Scene Investigation summer camp Sunday, June 21, through Friday, June 26, on campus.

Participants will gain valuable insight into the field of forensic science through experiential learning and strategically planned activities.

All workshops are interconnected through a series of evidence and crime scenes, designed with a hands-on approach to learning. Students will learn how to properly collect, preserve and analyze evidence.

During this six-day, five-night experience, students are given the opportunity to study with experts in forensic science as well as professionals from various fields including state and federal agencies. This year, camp topics will include scene processing, burial remains excavation, surveillance and search warrant execution, forensic analysis of biological evidence and questioned documents analysis.

Participants of the camp will train with special agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation Biometric Center of Excellence, Pennsylvania State Police Forensic Services, Bureau of Alcohol and the tobacco and Firearms (ATF), as well as representatives from Council Bluffs, Iowa, Police Department. The camp will enable students to enhance their knowledge and understanding of forensic topics, as well as allow them to make valuable connections with professionals and fellow peers in the field.

The camp affords participating students a chance to experience the realities of the professions in which they have found some interest, said Michael Cipoletti, camp director, director of the Forensic Science Program and assistant professor of forensic science at Waynesburg University. Students perspectives are typically formed from popular television shows or books; this camp gives them the ability to work with real professionals, ask them what their jobs are like and how they got to where they are.

Individuals entering 11th grade, 12th grade or who are spring 2015 high school graduates are eligible to attend the camp.
