Detective Constable Entry Programme

Start a career that matters and make a difference everyday

Incorporates a ‘uniform first’ approach where you will spend time working in a front-line uniformed police constable role, before starting your detective learning. We believe having front-line experience will provide our future detectives with greater exposure to the skills, knowledge and experience needed to become a more rounded officer and more effective investigator, while providing you with the necessary contextual knowledge of policing London.

It’s a four-year programme and the training is based on the national policing curriculum and focuses on preparing you to become a substantive police constable and a well-rounded detective.
