New Students Join Fachoberschule Police in Märkischer Kreis

The Criminal Police Department of Märkischer Kreis has welcomed 14 new students from the Fachoberschule (FOS) Police this year. The FOS Police is offering opportunities to students in multiple police departments, with the students distributed among Bochum, MK, EN, Olpe, and Siegen-Wittgenstein.

The Fachoberschule Police is a unique programme that combines theoretical instruction at vocational colleges such as Halver-Ostendorf with a deep and practical insight into police work at the respective Criminal Police Departments. This dual approach provides students with an excellent foundation for a career in the police force.

In the first year, the practical component is particularly high, with FOS students experiencing the daily routine in various police stations. This hands-on approach ensures that students gain a comprehensive understanding of the workings of the police force. In the second year, the training focuses on schools, with law and civics on the timetable.

Upon completion of their two-year programme, students will earn their Fachabitur, providing them with excellent prospects for a dual police studies programme. With their Fachabitur and after passing a character and medical fitness test, the graduates of the Fachoberschule Police will secure their place of study at the police in the year 2027.

The Criminal Police Department of Märkischer Kreis is one of the police departments participating in the Fachoberschule Police programme. The press office for the department can be reached via email at [email protected] and by phone at +49 (02371) 9199-1220 to -1222. They can also be contacted for press inquiries.

The state of NRW offers students with an intermediate school leaving certificate the opportunity to complete their Fachabitur at the Fachoberschule Police. A total of 58 students are starting at a Fachoberschule in the training leadership Hagen this year.

Kriminaldirektor Stefan Winkler welcomed the students and emphasized the importance of attracting new talent for the police. He highlighted the opportunities that the Fachoberschule Police programme presents for students who are passionate about a career in the police force. After completing their dual studies, they could begin their service as young police commissioners or commissioners in the Märkischer Kreis three years later.
