The Tasmania Police Career Development Program is aimed at Grade 12 students from around Tasmania who have a keen interest in becoming a Police Officer.
It is a free, five-day program conducted during school holidays, during which students will live at the Tasmania Police Academy, Rokeby, and experience first-hand what police recruit training involves.
As a part of this program students will undertake the Tasmania Police fitness testing and written examinations. Those students who are successful in these will progress through to the next stage of the recruitment process and possible employment at the completion of their Grade 12 studies. More information about the Program can be found on the Tasmania Police website
Applications for the 2021 Career Development Program are now open to current Grade 12 students only. The Programs will be held during the Term 2 and 3 holidays. To apply, students should check their school email account for full details. Applications are strictly due to the Careers Centre by Monday 29 March.
The popular Australian Defence Force Gap Year Program is Now Open
This program gives students who have completed Grade 12 the chance to experience an exciting and rewarding paid 12-month role in the Navy, Army or Air Force. For further information and to apply, visit: https://www.defencejobs.gov.au/students-and-education/gap-year/
