Let’s bust some of the most common myths about becoming a police officer. Which one surprises you the most? “You have to speak both English and French.” • Being multilingual can certainly be useful in Ottawa, but candidates shouldn't automatically assume that not being perfectly bilingual means policing is closed to them. The operational language is English. Our newest recruits speak numerous languages, including French, Arabic, Bangla, Hindi and Urdu. Speaking French is not a requirement! “I need a Police Foundations or Criminology degree.” • Police related schooling is not the only route. Our recruits come from a wide variety of educational backgrounds, including business, nursing, sciences, psychology and engineering. “I need previous law enforcement or military experience.” • A policing background isn’t the only experience that can prepare someone. Customer service, leadership, volunteering, trades, healthcare, business and other careers can develop transferable skills. We encourage applicants from different backgrounds and walks of life. “Police work is basically just arrests and responding to crime.” • Modern policing involves community engagement, communication, de-escalation, investigations, mental-health-related calls, traffic/public safety, deterring crime and working with many partner agencies. “Everyone who becomes an officer has wanted to be a police officer since childhood.” • There’s no single path into policing. Some police officers knew from a young age that policing is what they wanted to do, while others discovered it later after building experience in completely different careers. People can bring valuable skills from business, healthcare, trades, education, customer service, the military, public service, and many other fields. A career change doesn’t mean starting from zero, your previous experience may bring maturity, communication skills, leadership, problem solving, and a different perspective to policing. “You need to be huge, extremely muscular, or look intimidating.”
