About: The Police Constable Entry Programme (PCEP) is an entry route for joining the police which provides an excellent opportunity to be employed as a police officer from day one on a two year training programme.

This programme is guided as a Level 5 learning opportunity and is focused on developing policing skills with key models and theories used routinely within a policing environment.

PCEP is a two-year learning programme with a 20 week initial phase of learning and four returning weeks in year two further developing your understanding about key topics such as leadership, inclusion, investigation skills and public protection.

As an Officer, you will also attend Personal Safety Training and of course, there are a wide range of ICT systems to learn about.

Your knowledge and skills will be assessed throughout this period using a variety of techniques including exam, presentations, short essays and a full work-based occupational competency portfolio.

Our training teams understand that you may not yet know very much about policing. No assumptions are made, and each student officer is offered coaching to achieve the requirements in a very tailored way.

We also have lots of experience if you need any workplace adjustments – everyone is screened for Dyslexia and given personal feedback as necessary.

Out on patrol, you will be coached and mentored by trained tutor constables who will support you to achieve a \"safe and lawful\" standard of practice. Once you achieve Independent Patrol Status, you will be a fully deployable resource attending jobs by yourself.

You will be welcomed, whatever your background, and supported throughout the programme by our friendly teams.
