This two-semester graduate certificate program is designed to provide students with highly relevant applied skills, integrative learning experiences, and professional network development for careers in policing. Students will refine their abilities to analyze and make appropriate decisions in complex situations. Through small classes, simulations and applied projects, students will gain experience in dealing with social and organizational issues related to police services and community safety within increasingly diverse communities. Attention will be paid to mental health issues including the role of trauma as a risk factor for mental health and addictions. Students will also focus on personal wellness and fitness as key elements of operational readiness and resilience. A five-week block placement each semester with a local police service and/or a university police service provides opportunities to integrate knowledge and skills within an immersive environment.Program Information

Admission Procedures
- Applicants meeting the admission requirements will be invited to begin the selection process, which requires them to:
- Attend a mandatory information session, where they will be required to complete a program questionnaire. The questionnaire is intended to evaluate the applicant's understanding of the police profession and commitment to civic involvement, as measured by volunteer and leadership experience. Applicants must also respond to questions about aspects of their personal backgrounds that may limit their ability to be selected by a police service, including driving record, illicit drug use, and criminal associations. An applicant profile must also be completed.
- Final acceptance is based on a formula combining academic strength with questionnaire score.
Program Requirements
- Mandatory practicum health and safety requirements must be completed by students prior to student field/clinical placements. Successful placement completion is required for students to progress to program completion. To qualify for field/clinical placement learning experiences, students must present the following at the start of the program in accordance with pre-admission information provided by the College:
- Standard First Aid and CPR -level C
- A Police Check for Vulnerable Sector Screening (VSS). Police Checks must be clear of any unpardoned criminal offences. Some agencies may request students to provide personal information or further security clearance checks. An unclear finding may result in the inability to participate in field placement which will jeopardize progress in the program. Acceptance for placement is at the discretion of the agency; some agencies may request students to provide a VSS completed within six months of placement start date. Students with criminal records are advised to meet with the program chair for academic counselling to determine program suitability.
- Prior to commencing the first practicum in week 10, students must present documentation of CPR (Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation)/AED (Automated External Defibrillator) Level C certification.
- Applicants are advised that they must provide proof on admission that they have met police fitness standards. This may include:
- completion of Fitness for Police Foundations III or Vocational Fitness Standards II at Conestoga College or a course with similar demands at the post-secondary level, or
- a PREP certificate or certification of ability to meet the PREP bona fide vocational fitness standard.
- Applicants are advised that, in addition to fitness standards, police services have a number of other physical requirements including, but not limited to, vision and hearing. It is strongly recommended that applicants contact various police services to determine these requirements.
- Applicants are advised that an individual's driving history, illicit drug use, criminal associations and other personal behaviours may disqualify an individual from consideration as a police officer.
- It is recommended that applicants have a foundation in provincial and federal offences and procedures.

The College reserves the right to alter information including requirements and fees and to cancel at any time a program, course, or program major or option; to change the location and/or term in which a program or course is offered; to change the program curriculum as necessary to meet current competencies in the job market or for budgetary reasons; or to withdraw an offer of admission both prior to and after its acceptance by an applicant or student because of insufficient applications or registrations, over-acceptance of offers of admission, budgetary constraints, or for other such reasons. In the event the College exercises such a right, the College’s sole liability will be the return of monies paid by the applicant or student to the College.
Students actively registered in cohort delivered programs who take longer than the designed program length of time to complete their studies are accountable for completing any new or additional courses that may result due to changes in the program of study. Unless otherwise stated, students registered in non-cohort delivered programs must complete the program of study within seven years of being admitted to the program.
