Olibo
A local Indiana State Police officer graduated this week from the FBI National Academy in Quantico, Virginia.
ISP Lt. Edward Olibo, of Franklin, is one of 201 law enforcement officers who graduated from the 290th session of the National Academy, which consisted of men and women from 46 states and the District of Columbia. The class included members of law enforcement agencies from 24 countries, five military organizations, and six federal civilian organizations.
Olibo has been with ISP for nearly 25 years and is assigned to the ISP Criminal Justice Data Division.
Internationally known for its academic excellence, the National Academy offers 10 weeks of advanced communication, leadership, and fitness training. Participants must have proven records as professionals within their agencies to attend. On average, these officers have 21 years of law enforcement experience and usually return to their agencies to serve in executive-level positions.
A total of 55,186 graduates have completed the FBI National Academy since it began in 1935. The National Academy is held at the FBI Training Academy in Quantico, the same facility where the FBI trains its new special agents and intelligence analysts.
