Overview

Diploma - Police Foundations

The Internet, terrorism threats and changing laws require a modern approach to policing.

You’ll learn:

  • Canadian law
  • Police policy/procedures and legislation
  • Police fitness
  • Investigation and interviewing skills

  • Forensic crime scene analysis

Police services have strict hiring standards. 

At Sheridan, you’ll take physical fitness and other seminar courses to prepare you for these requirements.
