Applications Now Open……

The South African Police Service (SAPS) has embarked on its 2024/2025 #PoliceTrainees recruitment process in which an additional 10 000 youth between the ages of 18 and 35 will be trained to serve as men and women in blue.

The announcement was made by the Deputy Minister of Police, Mr Cassel Mathale during a National #SAPSCareer Expo in Mdantsane in the Eastern Cape on Saturday, 05 August 2023.

The career expo provided the SAPS with the opportunity to showcase, educate and expose communities to the various career paths in the SAPS.

Application forms are available as of Saturday, 05 August 2023 on the SAPS website: www.saps.gov.za under the police trainees section. Application forms will also be made available at all police stations from Monday, 07 August 2023.

There are currently 9000 trainees in academies throughout the country, another 1000 will be enlisted for training in January 2024. This will bring the total number of recruits trained to 10 000 in the 2023/2024 financial year. The 2024/2025 cohort is thus expected to commence their training in April 2024.

The Deputy Minister of Police, Mr Cassel Mathale says the aim is to ensure sufficient boots on the ground to serve and protect the communities we serve. The National Commissioner of the SAPS, General Fannie Masemola says the organisation is targeting those with a passion for public service.

The SAPS management wishes all applicants well in this process. http://www.saps.gov.za/newsroom/selnewsdetails.php?nid=47652
