DIVISION SECTIONS
Recruitment & Employment Division (RED)
Recruitment & Employment Division (RED) is the section of the Training Bureau responsible for advertisement of the Department (i.e. Recruitment) and responding to incoming applications (i.e. Employment). This is essentially "step 1" in what we do as the Training Bureau.
Police Training & Education (PTE)
The Police Training & Education (PTE) is the section of the Training Bureau responsible for ensuring continued professional development for all Officers ranked from Probationary Officer to Corporal. This in practice includes hosting ride-along for probationary officers as is required and by hosting Continued Education Sessions (CES) for existing department members which will focus on specific areas of Law Enforcement. This is essentially "step 3" in what we do as the Training Bureau.
Training Division (TD)
The Training Division (TD) is the section of the Training Bureau responsible for Field Training of Recruits in the department. Below you can find the Training Guide for both Classroom and Field Sections of Officer Training. This is essentially "step 2" in what we do as the Training Bureau.
CONTINUED EDUCATION SESSIONS (CES)
Continued Education Sessions are hosted Training Bureau for all members of the department to attend should they choose to. These aim to help lift standards in different areas of policing and can help supervisors gauge Officer Performance and perhaps bring around promotions to those who engage in the sessions and show a good capacity to learn and grow within the Department as a whole.
The Training Bureau's Responsibility in Hosting these CES is primarily logistics, non FTO Officers that show a degree of expertise in a certain area can be brought on to help host the CES, but in terms of advertising the session and logging attendance, that will be done by the Training Officer in charge.
