Are there any entry requirements for MSC officers?
If you want to apply for the Special Constabulary, you must be British, Commonwealth or Irish citizens between the ages of 18 and 57 years. We also may be able to accept applications from citizens of the EU and further afield if you have ‘indefinite leave to remain’. No formal qualifications are required in order to apply, however, it is helpful to have some equivalent life experience. You’ll be required to complete a competency based application form, role-plays, written tests and a structured interview. You would need to be at least 18½ years of age on the first day of training – so although it’s best to apply now, you might have to wait a short while for your course if you’ve just turned 18.
