ARU Direct - Deputy Senior Instructor in Police Education - Suffolk

ARU are partnered with The Metropolitan Police and the Seven Police Forces in the Eastern Region - Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Kent, Norfolk and Suffolk - to train the Police Officers of the future. We are delivering two of the new Police Constable Entry Routes (PCER) programmes: the Police Constable Degree Apprenticeship (PCDA) and the Degree Holder Entry Programme (DHEP) developed by the College of Policing.
This is a chance to be involved in shaping the Police Officers of the future and become part of an industry-leading team.
The PCER programmes aim to further professionalise policing as a career by both recognising and raising educational standards. New Police Constables will enrol with us on a three-year Police Constable Degree Apprenticeship (PCDA), which combines a degree programme with on-the-job training, while a two-year Degree Holder Entry Programme (DHEP) will be available for new recruits who already have a degree. We deliver these programmes at our Police partners' training facilities alongside our police colleagues, and also at our dedicated Police Education facility in London., Candidates should contact Sara Archer, Head of Partnership Delivery, for an informal discussion.
