Are you looking for an exciting career that offers exceptional opportunities for specialty training, career advancement, and very supportive wages, benefits, and pension?
Then perhaps policing is something you may wish to consider.
Policing is a career that offers different challenges every day, community involvement, and an opportunity to serve and protect the public and help others.
The Rainy River District OPP detachment is pleased to announce a recruitment workshop will be held Saturday, Sept. 15 in Fort Frances designed to encourage women and aboriginal people to consider a career in policing.
It will be held from 8 a.m.-3 p.m. at the local Confederation College campus (adjacent to Fort Frances High School).
We plan to have a number of OPP keynote speakers, including a recruitment officer, a technical traffic crash investigator/reconstructionist, general patrol officers, and supervisors, as well as hearing from specialty units such as a hostage negotiator.
Participants will have the opportunity to gain insight into career opportunities with the OPP, speak directly to police officers, and ask questions about a variety of policing experiences.
Applications may be found online through the OPP.ca website under Careers/Information Sessions.
Lunch will be provided.
Pre-registration is required. To register, contact Cst. Anne McCoy at anne.mccoy@ontario.ca or 1-800-274-3322 ext 3455.
