The Hamilton Police issued an interesting news release announcing the date of this year’s “Citizen’s Police College”
I wish I could attend – my work schedule conflicts – and encourage you to register if interested.
The course offers the opportunity for citizens to learn about the Police Service and gain a greater understanding of police work. The course goal is to inform citizen’s interested in better understanding the Police Service.
The course covers topics including:
- Forensics;
- Homicide;
- Drugs and Vice;
- Crime Stoppers;
- Victim Services;
- BEAR (Break, Enter, and Robbery) Unit;
- Major Fraud; and
- the Mounted Patrol Unit
The course is at Mohawk College and free for those who live, work, or study in Hamilton. (Citizens, those employed or full-time students in the city.)
Registration is now open. To register, email lsindrey@hamiltonpolice.on.ca or call Lindsay Sindrey at (905) 546-4900.
I highly recommend this course for any inspiring journalist, engaged citizen, or blogger in the local area.
