Grade 12
We are currently accepting a minimum overall score of 105 on the online Duolingo English Test as the equivalent to the minimum overall IELTS score of 6.5, for most programs. Program-specific ELP requirements still apply.
Demand is growing for police officers trained with an Indigenous perspective. Policing is a career that will challenge and reward you. The pay and benefits are great, but you need to be committed—to community, to making a difference, to working with people from all walks of life.
Sask Polytech's Aboriginal Policing Preparation program will train you for a career that goes beyond standard policing skills to include cultural awareness and personal growth. When you graduate, you’ll be able to apply for federal, provincial, municipal and community policing positions.
The program is available to everyone regardless of their cultural background. You can take the 30-week program on campus in Prince Albert, Regina and Saskatoon.
Our curriculum has a unique Aboriginal focus, while covering the major requirements of law enforcement training. Your instructors are experienced in policing, so you’re learning from people who’ve been on the front lines of community law enforcement. Your studies will focus on:
basic investigative techniques;
criminal justice system and criminal law;
dealing with addictions, family violence, suicide intervention;
developing strong communication skills; and
historic and contemporary Aboriginal issues.
