Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, Inc, Boulder, Colorado, United States, 80301
The University of Colorado Boulder Police Department (CUPD) encourages applications for a Police Officer (Recruit and Lateral)! CUPD Police Officers prevent, solve, and document criminal activity to maintain order. Their duties can include conducting various methods of patrol, arresting violators, filing criminal cases with prosecuting attorneys' offices, responding to emergencies, and providing a wide range of citizen assistance. Police Officers work special events including athletic events, distinguished speakers and lecturers, and concerts. Police Officers will routinely solve issues that require heightened decision-making abilities and use analysis and individual discretion to make choices affecting others and the campus at large.
Police Officer Recruits attend and successfully pass the police academy and the CUPD Police Training Officer (PTO) program in their first year. Upon successful completion of the police academy, the Police Training Officer (PTO) Program, and a probationary period, they are promoted to the position of Police Officer.
Police Officer Recruits (POST Academy Graduate) may have also completed a POST approved police academy prior to their employment at CUPD but do not qualify as lateral police Officers. Upon successful completion of the CUPD Police Training Officer (PTO) Program, and a probationary period, they are promoted to the position of Police Officer.
Lateral Police Officers have experience at another law enforcement agency equivalent sized or larger within the last twelve months. They can begin the duties of the position of Police Officer after completing training requirements of CUPD, including on-the-job training.
The University of Colorado Boulder is committed to building a culturally diverse community of faculty, staff, and students dedicated to contributing to an inclusive campus environment. We are an Equal Opportunity employer, including veterans and individuals with disabilities.
