Police Promotion

As you consider going for police promotion as an officer or member of staff, preparation and practice will make the difference between success and failure.

We offer a step-by-step support package for local force and national promotion processes for officers and staff of all roles and ranks, including Fast Track.

In addition, coaching and mentoring can help you prepare ahead of promotion cycles with a Leadership Gap Assessment or Presentation & Scenarios prep. Then, when you are successful,  we can assist you in settling into your new role after promotion.

Complete Career Support

Our experienced team of former police officers, police staff and non-service associates provide 1-to-1 practice sessions where you get to experience each exercise ahead of time, just as you would in the real thing. They then provide you with detailed feedback about areas you may need to improve on ahead of the actual promotion process.

We support:

  • PC to Sergeant
  • Sergeant to Inspector
  • Inspector to Chief Inspector
  • Chief Inspector to Superintendent
  • Superintendent to Chief Superintendent
  • Police Staff promotion for all roles and levels
  • Fast Track

 

You will go into your promotion process with the added confidence of knowing what to expect and exactly what areas you need to improve on to succeed.

You can practice in a safeconfidential, and secure environment, gaining valuable feedback from former senior officers and staff.

Why P2P?

Practice to Progress is a service delivered entirely by successful former senior police officers and staff and non-service associates (community representatives).  

The P2P associate team has first-hand experience of passing promotion boards themselves as well as sitting on the other side of the table to assess others at a local and national levels.

You will benefit from their detailed constructive feedback on how you performed in your mock board interview or presentation including which areas you may need to improve on.

Practice to Progress is based on the concept that there is no substitute for experience.
