Re: QPS as a career?
Hey mate.
I will be hoping to apply to become a police recruit in the near future. I have a Diploma of Business, which meets the requirements, but for my own benefit and personal reasons, I have just started the Justice Administration course aswell. Near the end of that course I will look at getting fitter.
I work for the QLD Government in the meantime.
Let me know if you want to chat about it.
Good Luck

Due to the Shift roster I work, the only time I've been able to do Cardio training lately has been in the middle of the day, and it seems to have helped my Stamina quite a bit - Although it's a sweaty tiring affair!

Re: QPS as a career?
I have been thinking about applying for a while but the education side holds me back. I have been working 8 years with 6 of them full time and I'm a tradesmen but thats only a cert III. Some times I think they need some more ''working class'' men in the force. I'm not having a go at educated people here but most of the tertiary educated people and a lot of the cops I know are a bit soft.

QPS as a career?
Clearly u must hang in different circles if the graduates from uni are "soft"
Gee I know some "soft" traddies
Dont think that education had anything to do with the "softness" of people. More a personality than anything
