Village of Pinehurst Manager Jeff Sanborn proudly announced that Pinehurst Police Chief Glen Webb has graduated as a member of the 286th session of the FBI National Academy.
The graduation took place at the National Academy in Quantico, Virginia on June 8, 2023. Chief Webb is only the third officer in department history to complete the prestigious program. Nationally, fewer than one percent of officers have the opportunity to attend the program.
“Not only did Chief Webb complete this rigorous training, but he also earned the respect of his peers by being elected Section B representative,” said Sanborn in a press release. “This is a testament to the solid leadership we have come to expect from Chief Webb.”

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.

The 286th session consisted of 238 law enforcement officers from 47 states and the District of Columbia. The class included members of law enforcement agencies from 25 countries, five military organizations, and six federal civilian organizations.
