Text: Executive Director
William C. O’Toole is the Executive Director of the Northern Virginia Criminal Justice Training Academy (NVCJA) in Ashburn, Virginia. The NVCJA is a regional law enforcement academy that provides in-service, and command-level training to more than 2,700 sworn police officers and deputy sheriffs from 17 law enforcement agencies. Bill was appointed to this position on July 3, 2006.
During his 26 years career at the Montgomery County (Maryland) Police Department he served in a variety of patrol, investigative, supervisory, and command assignments. He also was a patrol officer, a plainclothes street crimes officer, a criminal investigator, and an undercover narcotics investigator. As a supervisor, he was responsible for both traditional patrol shifts and community-based policing teams.
As an Assistant Chief O’Toole has held executive positions as the Deputy Commander of the Silver Spring District, the Director of the Training Academy, and the Director of the Media Services Division. In 2002, Bill was promoted to the rank of Assistant Chief. He led both the Field Services (Patrol) Bureau, which is comprised of more than 800 employees and includes oversight of six police district stations and the Special Operations Division and the Management Services Bureau, which includes the Training, Budget, Technology, Animal Services, Records, Personnel, and Planning Divisions. After the resignation of the former-police chief, Bill was appointed as the Acting Chief of Police and served in that capacity during 2003 for almost one year.
A veteran of the United States Army Military Police Corps and a native of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Mr. O’Toole holds a Bachelor’s degree (BS) in Criminology from the University of Maryland and a Master’s degree (MS) in Management from Johns Hopkins University. As part of his studies, Bill also earned a certificate of completion from the Police Executive Leadership Program at Johns Hopkins University and he is also a graduate of the 219th Session of the FBI’s National Academy.
