The Chatham-Kent Police Service Training and Career Development Unit is a Unit within the Professional Standards Branch. The Unit was officially developed in January 2000 and currently consists of one Sergeant and five part-time Constables, all of whom are qualified Use of Force Instructors. The Training Unit ensures that all Chatham-Kent Police Personnel receive the necessary and mandated training required to meet legislated requirements under the Police Service Act and Adequacy Standards. Some of this Training includes, Firearms re-qualification, Defensive Tactics re-qualification/refresher training, Police Vehicle Operations, Suspect Apprehension Pursuit training, Advanced Patrol Training, General Investigation Training, Coach Officer training, Domestic Violence Investigation training, Heavy Weapons/Shotgun training and Physical Fitness training. The Training and Career Development Unit, as its name would imply, is a learning unit, which promotes and facilitates the life long learning philosophy of our Police Services. The Unit accomplishes this mission through the continuous professional and personal development of all employees.
