Hi everyone!
What's the difference between Community Policing Officer and
Police Officer? What about the training and salary etc?
Hi risyfozy, a community policing officer is more focused on
interacting with the community such as go to schools hosts talks,
attend Resident Committee meetings etc. For a regular police
officer they are the ones that respond to 999 calls and conduct
either foot patrols or cruise around in the police car and patrol.
Training wise, I believe CPO and PO both go through Police Officer
Basic Course which is 3 months followed by Ground Response Force
which is also 3 months in HTA.
