Find answers to your legal question.





Im 16 can i get some work experience with the police?

im interested in becoming a police officer but i know that you need ot be a minimum of 18, so i plan to join after i have finished my a levels.
what i want to know is whether i would be allowed to get some work experience with the police in the summer, as for me it is likely to be long and lonely and will be a good opportunity to see what it would be like, and then see if i still want to become one, giving me a chance to plan towards university.

I am planning to take a degree in either maths or computer maintenance (as a fall back plan) in the event of me being unable ot work in the police die to injury or other reasons.

answers muchly appreciated

Do a Google search for Explorers in your area they are a group that let younger people get experience with Police, Firefighters, and Paramedics. Really great group my brother was in the Firefighters Explorers he had a uniform and everything.

It sounds as if you might be in a country other than the United States. If I am wrong, I apologize. However, in the U.S. many police departments offer 'cadet' positions for teens. Cadets are often uniformed, do occasional ride-alongs, and may have duties such as traffic control, front desk duty, and minor report writing. Perhaps they offer such positions at departments in your country as well?

I wouldn't want to go into much more detail than that without being able to talk about the specifics in your area.

easier way of doing thins- sometimes you may be able to talk to an officer and ask where if any where you can go to get experience summer training to be a cop- or the other guy had it right with the military police

The easiest and cheapest path to becoming a police officer is to join the military and be assigned to military police. You'll get training, experience and a paycheck. This gives you a leg up on every other applicant off the street.

This is advice that works in every country, everywhere.
