Welcome to Next Shift Academy

Why Next Shift Academy?

If you’re considering or working through the transition out of law enforcement, you might feel stuck, frustrated, or unsure where to start. We get it—we’ve been there. That’s why Next Shift Academy exists:

• To remind you that you are not stuck. Change starts with one decision.
• To show you that you are not alone. This is your squad, a community that “gets it.”
• To prove that you are not ‘just a cop.’ You’re so much more than the badge, and it’s time to start living like it.

At Next Shift Academy, we help you take the leap into life after law enforcement with the tools, resources, and connections to ensure you’re not doing it alone.
