MIAMI—Brett Skiles, the acting special agent in charge of FBI Miami, announces the graduation of six South Florida law enforcement officers from the FBI National Academy, Session 294, at a ceremony held in Quantico, Virginia, today.

The officers are:

• Davie Police Department (DPD) Captain Edward Wong
• Highlands County Sheriff’s Office (HSO) Lieutenant Kyle Albritton

• Miccosukee Police Department (MPD) Major Helio Dubroca
• Okeechobee County Sheriff’s Office (OSO) Lieutenant Heath Hughes
• Palm Beach Gardens Police Department (PBGPD) Assistant Chief Randall Anderson

As FBI National Academy graduates, these officers enter a select group made up of less than one percent of the country’s law enforcement officers. They were hand-picked by their departments and, along with about 200 other officers, completed the 10-week course at the FBI training facility in Quantico, Virginia. Internationally known for its academic excellence, the National Academy offers advanced communication, leadership, and fitness training. Session 294 began on March 30, 2025.

The FBI National Academy is dedicated to the improvement of law enforcement standards and has long been a benchmark for professional continuing education. Participants are drawn from every state in the union, from U.S. territories, and from over 150 partner nations. Police officers who attend the Academy return to their communities better prepared to meet criminal challenges.

The overall goal of the Academy is to support, promote and enhance the personal and professional development of law enforcement leaders by preparing them for complex, dynamic and contemporary challenges through innovative techniques, facilitating excellence in education and research and forging partnerships throughout the world.

The academy was created in 1935 with 23 students in the first class. It has grown over the years to the current enrollment of about 1,000 students a year. The FBI National Academy is one of the premier law enforcement academies in the world.
