4. Let me introduce my friend Oleg: About my friend

I have a friend. His name is Kucherenko Oleh. He is a first-year cadet of the tax militia department. He entered the National State Tax Service Academy of Ukraine after finishing a secondary school.

You know, that was his dream to enter this Academy. No wonder, as his father is a tax inspector. As you see, he took his father's way.

His mother is a book-keeper at a book-keeping department of the factory. She likes her speciality very much. Oleh has a sister. She is twenty. She works as a cashier at the post-office savings bank. She combines her work with studies at the Academy. She is a second-year student of non-resident instruction at the Academy.

My friend worked hard to pass his entrance examinations well. So, he is a cadet now. Many new things and notions came into his life with it. According to the regulations the trainees are to wear a special militia uniform: they are not future civil lawyers, they are future officers of Tax Militia. Their future profession is Law, crime detection and crime investigation in taxation.

To become highly qualified specialists they are to learn different subjects. Their curriculum includes Criminal Law, Civil Law, Special Tactics, Crime Detection, Criminal Procedure, Crime Psychology, and Criminology. They also study International Law, Labour Law, English, Philosophy, etc. There are many law enforcement experts of great practical experience, Doctors of Law, professors at our Academy who give the cadets lectures and do their best to give our cadets professional skills and abilities to drive a car, to use the weapon. Everything is necessary and useful for the cadets: practical instructions, lectures and seminars at the Academy and practice in Militia bodies. At the end of each term the cadets have credits and exams.

After graduation from our Academy the cadets get a diploma of a lawyer and become lieutenants of the Tax Militia. Our Academy trains specialists in taxation for all regions of Ukraine.
