The Comox Valley RCMP are seeking individuals to participate in the volunteer Auxiliary Police Constable Program.
The primary purpose of auxiliary constables is to participate in community policing service activities related to public safety and crime prevention.
Auxiliary constables are also able to accompany regular police officers on general patrol duties.
The minimum requirements for auxiliary constables are: the applicant should be 19 years of age or older; a Canadian citizen or Landed Immigrant; of good character; be physically fit; have a high school diploma or equivalent and have a valid B.C. driver's licence (no 'L' or 'N').
Applicants will be required to undergo a medical examination, a security/reliability screening and will be tested for general suitability. Successful applicants will be required to participate in an extensive training program.
Being an RCMP Auxiliary Constable can be a challenging and rewarding way to volunteer in the community. Interested applicants are asked to attend an information session and bring their resume to the Courtenay Fire Hall at 650 Cumberland Road, June 16 at 7 p.m.
For more information, contact Cst. Nicole Hall at 250-334-5918.
