Do you want to become an auxiliary constable?
The Cranbrook and Kimberley RCMP are looking for men and women who are interested in becoming Auxiliary Constables.
Auxiliary Constables are authorized to accompany regular members on patrol and perform other police functions under both general and direct supervision. Activities may include office duties, special events, community events, property checks, and traffic and crowd control. Additionally, they often assist regular members during peacetime emergencies and searching for lost persons.
The purpose of the program is to strengthen community and police partnerships. This partnership is strengthened by providing an opportunity for citizen volunteers to perform authorized activities in support of strategies to address causes or reduce the fear of crime and disorder.
All Auxiliary Constables must complete 150 hours (approximately) of approved RCMP training prior to receiving their Provincial appointment, which will be provided in Cranbrook.
The requirements:
Canadian Citizen
19 years of Age with a Valid Class 5 Drivers Licence
Highschool Diploma or equivalent
An RCMP security clearance
Good Character and Reputation
If you are interested in this valuable program please contact Cst. Lisa Schlatter (Cranbrook) at 250-489-3471 or Cpl. Chris Newel (Kimberley) at 250-427-4811 for further information. An information session will be held on September 18, at the Cranbrook RCMP Detachment (31-11th Avenue South) beginning at 6:30 p.m. All potential applicants should attend with valid photo identification.
