The new Police Constable entry programme (PCEP) is a 2-year based scheme aimed at people who wish to become a Police Constable through a more vocational route with no studying towards a degree. This will give you the opportunity to be employed as an officer from day one. You will be provided with a solid foundation of policing and receive support from our dedicated in-house training team. As a police officer, you will play a vital role in ensuring that our communities in Northamptonshire are kept safe; therefore, the team will teach you new skills to equip you to begin your journey as a police officer.
After approximately 31 weeks, you will reach independent patrol status and then you will be patrolling without a tutor for the remainder of the two-year programme.
Once you have completed your 2-year probationary programme, you will be able to consider further opportunities including promotions and specialisms depending on your interests and aspirations within the force. You could choose to work within road policing, firearms, dog handler, CID, neighbourhood, etc.
What’s in it for you?
You are on your way to earning a highly competitive salary, starting at £29,907 and rising to £48,231. It’s a job where no two days are the same and is both challenging and rewarding.
You will receive an excellent pension, annual leave, personal support and advice, free access to support services, free access to sport and social club facilities, and you will qualify for a Blue Light Discount Card.
