Employment Opportunities - Police Profession

Periodically, the MPTC is contacted by police departments across the Commonwealth who are hiring entry-level patrol officers.

The MPTC does not advertise law enforcement employment opportunities outside the state of Massachusetts.

What You Should Know

• Please refer to 550 CMR §3.03 (4) which states, in part, “Within three years of graduating from a police academy, an individual must become certified by POST as a law enforcement officer. Failure to be certified within three years will require the individual to re-attend the police academy."
• Please do not contact the MPTC and do not expect to receive updates from the MPTC.
• You are encouraged to continue to actively solicit employment and to rely on these announcements as only one part of that effort.
