Throughout your training you will need to complete operational and academic assessments. Academic assessments include exams, essays and presentations.

Throughout your training, you’ll undertake a number of operational deployments including:

Response - this involves responding to emergency calls from the public and going out to the scene of the incident

Neighbourhood policing - this involves working with a neighbourhood policing team who are dedicated to policing a certain community or area.

Investigations - using all the tools available to you both office based and out in the community.
