The City of Edmonton is a rapidly growing, vibrant city of more than one million people. To ensure the safety and security of all Edmontonians, the Edmonton Police Service (EPS) continues to attract and hire the next generation of police officers. The EPS offers one of Canada’s top-tier training programs – ensuring all police officers are trained and ready to respond to the diverse needs across a growing City.
As a leading police agency, the EPS encourages creativity, innovation, exploring new ways of working, and implementing better processes to increase output. Our technological capabilities allow officers and support staff to be better equipped and intelligence-driven when problem solving and responding to daily operational activities.
Over 2,000 police officers provide 24/7 service across the city who are dedicated to protect and proud to serve. The role of a police officer includes providing a uniformed, community-based presence, maintaining social order, keeping the peace, enforcing laws, preventing crime, attending court, addressing matters of public safety, and responding to the needs of communities, city-wide.
The role of a police officer is both rewarding and challenging. As the process is competitive, EPS strives to hire the best candidates who are motivated to make a change, for the right reasons. If you share our values as a compassionate, community-minded individual, we’re looking forward to hearing from you.
Please note: Once you have completed all steps within APATS, your application will be reviewed by our administrative team. When the application is deemed "complete", you will receive additional questionnaires to complete, and your file will advance to the pre-screening review. Applications that are vague or lacking detail will result in "additional information requests" which may slow the process for an applicant. Please ensure that you are thorough and detailed when answering questions.
