Policing Vision 2025: Your degree in policing
Policing Vision 2025 sets out the Association of Police and Crime Commissioners and National Police Chief’s Council long-term professional development strategy for policing until 2025. Along with Prime Minister Boris Johnson pledging to recruit an additional 20,000 officers to help meet the increasing demands on our police service, it also requires policing in England and Wales to become a graduate profession. This means that all officers will need to be educated to degree level by 2020.
