The process through which applicants applicants for the Durham Regional Police Force are put is both rigorous and highly selective. The vast majority of applicants are screened out of the process process long before they ever see a uniform. uniform. In fact, the successful candidates will have to wait about one year before they become members of the regional police force. Bowmanville Lions were enlightened enlightened about police recruiting and training training procedures on Monday evening when Inspector Roy Hobbs delivered a polished speech about the department which he heads. When the Inspector looks around at some of the police officers currently serving the region, he knows that their success or failure can be traced back directly to his doorstep. Rccruit : ing and training are the crucial supporting supporting structures of the entire policing policing framework, here in Durham and throughout Canada. A 27-year veteran, Inspector Hobbs told the 75 Lions gathered for their regular meeting that the Charter of Rights has changed police recruiting techniques in several significant ways. Although it may be rather inefficient, inefficient, police cannot conduct a medical examination of a candidate until all other tests have been completed. The Charter forbids decisions about eminent eminent based on medical data, he former height and weight stipulations stipulations also have been eradicated by the Charter. The requirement now is that the candidate's height and weight be "proportionate." This can lead to roblems in perception and judgement ecause determining what is proportionate proportionate is purely subjective. From the day an applicant first applies applies to join the force, it can take 10 to 12 monthSvbefore he : or she is hired. Every Tuesmy is testing day, in. Durban! Durban! and 30 to 40 applicants meet at 8:30 f in tHe'moitoing to complete a 50 word spelling test, an IQ test, and a attitute test about themselves. Sometime Sometime during that morning each person is interviewed briefly as well. That relatively simple process screens out nearly half of the people, largely because that many fail the spelling test. A 480-question true and false psychological profile test follows for those remaining. In the afternoon they assemble at Durham College to undergo fitness testing; 60 percent is a passing grade. By the end of the day over naif of those who arrived full of enthusiasm in the morning have been rejected. There is a waiting period of six months to be retested. ployr Th an Remaining applicants then fill out information sneet from which police police conduct an exhaustive background check which can take six to eight weeks to complete. If the background is acceptable, the candidate and his or her spouse are invited in for a three hour interview and conversation at which time the police try to fully assess assess the person's personality and ambitions. ambitions. Members of Inspector Hobbs' staff also interview the spouse separately during this time. At this point, months after the first contact between applicant and police, a selection board reduces the number of acceptable applicants to 20 or so. These persistent few then are interviewed interviewed for half an hour each. After further screening, they appear before the police commission and answer answer questions for as long as commissioners commissioners wish to question them. Finally, the few who remain are given given medical examinations and contacted contacted with a starting date. If they are not ready to begin collecting collecting a pension by the time this has all taken place, they spend five weeks learning the ropes at one of Durham's many divisions. The last week of this initial stint on the police force is spent riding in a cruiser with an experienced officer. The next step is probably the most difficult. The new constables spend nine gruelling weeks at Alymer, Ontario Ontario at the Ontario Police College. "It is the most difficult nine weeks academically academically these people ever will experience," experience," assures Inspector Hobbs. Monday to Friday they begin at 7:30 a.m. and finish at 11:30 p.m., taking taking classés, performing various physical physical fitness demands, and studying furiously furiously for the many exams which must be passed if the effort put forth during the past year is to mean anything at all. The graduation ceremony is special and is recognized as such by the Durham Durham Regional Police. Representatives always are on hand to recognize the achievements of their new constables. For the first month after returning from Alymer, new constables learn the specifics about their duties at their precinct. The practical side of what they learned at police college is added at this point. Inspector Hobbs believes that the police could do more reaching out to minority groups in the community, encouraging encouraging them to consider policing as a career. Presently minorities represent represent about 4 percent of the applicants, although he "can see that changing." 9<i: ,"1 don't think we should lower our standards for anyone and I don't think we will." He added that everyone is judged fairly by the exact same standards. standards. "Women, once considered a visible minority, now constitute one-third of all candidates. The one regret Inspector Hobbs has is that few of the applicants he deals with actually come from the Durham Region. The competition between different different municipalities and with Metro Toronto is fierce for qualified personnel. personnel. Having travelled the country extensively extensively when he served as the Solicitor General's expert in crime prevention, he says with confidence that "we have one of the best police forces in Ontario and in Canada." Recruiting, he reminds everyone, is where it all begins. ANOTHER CLUB! By: Amy Ramage The club I need to talk about today is Mindstretch- ers. Mindstrctchers is a club for grade six students only. Mrs. Clement and Mrs. Any- an run the meeting in the Librmy every Wednesday at 3:45 to 4:30. There arc about 10 people in the club. Teachers Teachers picked out names of people people for enrichment ana to solve problems. At the meetings meetings they play games and do puzzles. Some of the games arc strategy games which include include Cubic, Three-Up, Rummy and Anthologies which is picking an appropriate appropriate answer for a sentence. sentence. "That is a lot of fun!" states Stephen Clancy who is one of the members in the club. He also said that it is a great experience and it was the best club he has ever been in. Another thing the club does is Twenty Questions. Questions. An object is placed in a box and with twenty questions questions or less students nave to guess what is in the box. They also play a brainstorming brainstorming game with girls on one team and boys on the other. Both teams are given a piece of paper and a topic is given to both teams ana in a limited limited time they think of ways to use that topic. The team with the most ideas wins. They also learn how to get along with the other members members of the club. Mrs. Clement Clement and Mrs. Anyan hope to pick some people to go to the Thinkbowl which is another club of problem solving. Mrs. Anyan and Mrs. Clement might have a Mindstretch- ers club for grades 4 and 5 but they are not sure yet. Well, Mindstretchers sounds like a fun and interesting club to be in! HELP IN MRS.
