Welcome to your Leadership of Policing course

In your induction week we will be preparing you for your learning and introducing you to your teaching team, the virtual learning environment we will be working within and most importantly, getting to know each other.

Getting this environment right is really important because we need to be comfortable when sharing our experience, practice and ideas; peer to peer learning is just as important as taught input.

Your first modules will introduce research, supported by academic writing inputs from our brilliant online library and ethics within policing. All planned sessions will be recorded, so don’t be concerned if you can’t make a session.

Additionally, for the first month of your course, your course leader will hold a weekly seminar to address any initial issues. Outside of this you can contact your course leader at any time.

The programme is very much about looking to the future leadership requirements so we will also be exploring your thoughts and reflections about the suggested pre-reading and your experiences of leadership in both context and concept. This method of reflective learning is the corner stone for our collective learning.
