Police Explorer Program or Civil Air Patrol?

I'm trying to decide on which after school program I should. I don't want to take both since I already have a job, and I plan on taking a lot of AP classes, and joining athletics teams. After high school, first, I'm going to get a mechanical engineering degree, with an emphasis on either Aerospace or Robotics. Then I'll either join the Air Force as a developmental engineer and make a career out of that, or join the Marines as a combat engineer, and then join SWAT. I have a choice of either joining a Police Explorer's Program that will give me the skills and knowledge to start a path towards becoming SWAT, or I can do Civil Air Patrol which will give me flight hours and teach me about the Air Force, plus Aerospace. What's going to look better on resumes and applications, and overall, what's your opinion on what's going to be better. Also, I'm already planning on joining JROTC for school. Thanks! #mechanical-engineer #mechanical-engineering #engineering #social-work #civil-engineering #police #marketing #aerospace-engineering #mechanical #civil-engineering #military #marines #air-force #civil-air-patrol #police #first-responder #lawyer #law-enforcement

what can I do as a US resident waiting for citezenship?

Currently an immigrant high school graduate starting school at a city college soon. I would like to transfer to a state after and graduate in 2022. I will be getting residency that same year from my grandmother, I believe. My dream has always been to work for SFPD as the job interests me the most and I’ve lived here since 2008. That’s some of my background. Now, my question is what can I do with a criminal justice bachelors degree as a US resident to improve my resume when applying for SFPD? Assuming the wait for citezenship is about 5 years. Thank you for your help, it’s much appreciated. #criminal-justice #police #cop #immigration #policeacademy #citezenshiprequirements

In what ways could I better prepare for law enforcement or fire academy?

I am preparing to go into both police and fire academy (one after the other). I have a degree in Criminology and have taken fire science courses at my college. I attend a weekly workout program through a local agency. Do you have any other suggestions on ways to prepare or different subjects to look into? Former fire instructors said fire science would be good in law enforcement to be better prepared at a fire scene if the situation arose. Is there any other advice you have to be better prepared? Not only for the academy, but for the career as well. #firefighting #career #law-enforcement #police #fire-academy #police-academy #academy #advice

How do you handle conflict surrounding the job?

I am in the application process for a couple of different law enforcement agencies. I still live at home and have family members who are current or retired law enforcement. I have tried being open about the process and how it will work after I graduate from academy, but there is no way I'm changing their mind on not liking the idea (which I completely understand, as a good parent will always worry). Do you have advice on dealing with this conflict when it occurs? Or even on the job, how do you deal with conflict at home? #criminal-justice #law-enforcement #police #conflict #law #police-academy #advice
