Police Chief Rod Knecht will be joined at the ceremony by Cathy Palmer, Chair of the Edmonton Police Commission, EPS senior management, and representatives from other law enforcement and emergency response agencies.
The program will include a formal procession by the EPS Honour Guard, performances by the EPS Pipes and Drums and the EPS Chorus, colourful flag and marching drills, comments from EPS members and special guests, and diploma presentations. Recruit class members will also receive recognition awards for demonstrating excellence in: problem solving, officer safety, academics, humanitarianism, fitness, and the trainers’ choice category.
The 30 recruits (24 males, six females, and two police service dog teams) come from a variety of backgrounds from across Canada and abroad. The recruits have completed a year of intense academic and field development training and assessment, and are now full-fledged police officers committed to making Edmonton the safest major city in Canada.
Members of the public and media are invited to join family and friends at the graduation ceremony and wish the new graduates well.
