Consider a career in policing


The OPP is supporting the launch of Discover Policing, a province-wide, collaborative initiative under the auspices of the Ontario Association of Chiefs of Police, which aims to attract young people to a career in policing.
“The OPP wants to attract the best candidates to become police officers. Discover Policing is the police sector's response to encouraging people from all walks of life – especially young people – to consider a law enforcement career,” said Inspector Dave Quigley, OPP Career Development Bureau.
Discover Policing will feature a number of social media portals where individuals interesting in a law enforcement career can engage with police personnel about what police organizations are looking for in potential candidates, educational requirements, potential opportunities, etc. Individuals who want to consider a law enforcement career can connect with police personnel through three social media platforms:
Facebook: The Discover Policing Facebook page will be the primary source of information for the initiative. This page will include information about Discover Policing, provide helpful resources and links for potential candidates, links to all police agencies, and a calendar of recruitment events for police services across Ontario.
Twitter: This Twitter account, @DiscoverPolicin, will connect users to police personnel who can assist users with their queries.
LinkedIn: Users of this professional networking platform will be able to connect with police personnel and learn more about policing in Ontario.
The OPP is also pleased to announce that it will participate in the Discover Policing Exposition that will be held on October 15, 2014 at the Toronto Police College. This one-day event, which is free of charge for members of the public, will provide an opportunity for Ontario police services to showcase the profession of policing to potential candidates and for attendees to engage directly with police personnel. It will take place from noon to 8 p.m. and feature exhibitor booths for police agencies, presentations by police personnel about career opportunities, and special demonstrations.
