Hamilton Police Service (HPS) has now opened registration for this fall’s Citizens’ Police College. The popular program will host classes on a variety of policing topics.

Classes start Thursday, October 4, 2018 and run every Thursday for six consecutive weeks. Each class runs from 6:00 p.m. – 8:30 p.m. and are held at the Central Police Station, 155 King William Street in Hamilton.

Hamilton Police Service is one of the first police services in Ontario to offer this type of program to its community members. Thousands of citizens have participated since Citizens’ Police College opened its doors in 1997.

Citizens’ Police College is designed for any individual interested in learning about policing. Enrolment is free, but class size for the popular program is limited to a first to register basis. The program is offered to individuals 18 years of age and older, who reside in Hamilton or are engaged in full-time studies within the City.

The Records Department requires each applicant to present two (2) pieces of acceptable identification.
