Launched in 2020, the collaboration between NWP and the university has allowed new recruits to combine academic learning with work-placed learning.
This dual pathway scheme provides formal recognition for the skills demonstrated by today鈥檚 police professionals and the demands placed on them by an increasingly complex working environment.
A total of 31 students have now completed their period of study, with many achieving exceptional grades.
Of this group, 17 individuals achieved a Distinction - which represents 55% of the graduating officers.
