The Saint Paul Police Department has made a public call for new recruits and experienced officers alike, unveiling an array of positions for those keen on joining the ranks of law enforcement in the Twin Cities. In a recent Facebook post, the department highlighted four distinct entryways into the force, tailored for individuals from various educational and professional backgrounds.
One such pathway, the ICPOET (Intensive Career Program for Officer Entry Training), is geared towards degree-holders who seek a law enforcement career but lack POST certification. This program offers an especially unique proposition — the ability to earn a full-time salary while attending school to become licensed. The deadline for ICPOET applications is set for June 13, so interested parties have a tight window to throw their hat in the ring.
For officers currently serving elsewhere, the Saint Paul PD extends the option of lateral transfer. This opportunity is directed towards seasoned professionals aiming to bring their expertise to the streets of Saint Paul. Detailed information regarding the lateral transfer process can be found on the department’s recruitment page…
