INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES
Scottish Police College
The Scottish Police College is approached on a regular basis by Government departments and police forces both here and abroad to assist them in training and developing their staff or to carry out strategic level reviews. Over recent years the demand has reached such a level that the College introduced a post that focuses purely on such international development work.
These projects are normally resourced from a data base of retired officers who are referred to as 'associates'. These individuals generally have a background in training or have skills in a particular area of policing and have normally worked in some sort of management position. The projects we deliver range from delivering bespoke training at the College to travelling overseas to carry out reviews of foreign police services. Projects both at home and abroad can last anywhere between one and six weeks, dependant on the mission being undertaken.
The increase in demand for projects has reached such a level that it has become necessary to increase the size of the associate data base. We now require to identify officers who have retired over the period of the past year or are just about to retire from the service. They should be, enthusiastic, willing to travel overseas, capable of working in a challenging environment and be part of a close knit team that can represent the Scottish Police Service. Remuneration rates are agreed prior to each project but in general the work is considered to be well paid.
I would be grateful if you could circulate this information to your members including those who have, or are just about to retire. Any enquiries should be directed to myself at the Scottish Police College at the addresses detailed below. It would be beneficial if those who wish to contact me for an informal discussion could have a brief CV of their career to hand.
I think that it is only fair to point out that there is no guarantee that individuals will be guaranteed work. Demand, along with the particular skills of individuals involved will determine who is selected to undertake missions.
If you require any further information please do not hesitate to contact me at the following contact address

Ideally we’d like people who are security minded and can help spot things that may be out-of-the-ordinary. Alongside this the volunteer would be there to greet members of the public and answer questions or give information on the history of the building, city and Scotland, so anyone that’s interested in meeting new people and Scotland’s history may also enjoy this position. Shifts would be for around 2 hours a week.
Anyone who is interested in helping us can find out more about this position, and others that we currently have vacant, at our website www.nts.org.uk/volunteering.
