DRAFT REGULATION ON PROPOSED NEW CAREER PROGRAM FOR MEMBERS OF THE WEST BERLIN REGULAR POLICE, THE CRIMINAL POLICE AND THE SMALL BUSINESS REGULATORY POLICE SERVICE.
Abstract
THE PROPOSAL SUBMITTED TO THE MUNICIPAL SENATE AND HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES WOULD OPEN UP ACCESS TO HIGHER CATEGORY POSITIONS. A NEW CAREER, ON THE SUPERVISORY LEVEL, OF AN 'INDIVIDUAL DOING SPECIAL WORK' WOULD BE ESTABLISHED IN ALL BRANCHES OF THE POLICE. FOR REGULAR CAREER PATH PERSONNEL, 'RECRUIT TRAINING' WOULD BE REPLACED BY A TWO-AND-ONE-HALF-YEAR 'TRAINING SERVICE' PROGRAM. CANDIDATES FOR SUPERVISORY-SPECIALIST CAREERS WOULD TAKE A THREE-YEAR COURSE IN THE BERLIN ADVANCED TECHNICAL ACADEMY FOR MANAGEMENT AND THE ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE. PERSONNEL IN THE SPECIAL ADVANCEMENT PROGRAM CAN REACH THE RANK OF KOMMISSAR (LIEUTENANT) BY FOLLOWING THIS PATH. OPPORTUNITIES FOR ACCESS TO EXECUTIVE CAREERS FOR EDUCATIONALLY QUALIFIED CANDIDATES WOULD BE EXPANDED. IT IS EXPECTED THAT THE NEW CAREER PROGRAM WILL ATTRACT SECONDARY SCHOOL GRADUATES AND, IN SOME CASES, UNIVERSITY GRADUATES INTO THE BERLIN POLICE.
