How can I become a DoD Police?

The primary qualifications for becoming a DoD police contractor depend on the position, but most require a bachelor's degree and several years of experience as a police officer. Experience is important, so the more time you spend as a police officer, the easier it is to get hired as a contractor. DoD police jobs almost always require an active security clearance, potentially up to Top Secret with Sensitive Compartmented Information eligibility (TS/SCI), which is one of the highest levels available. Fulfilling the responsibilities and duties of a DoD police officer requires communication skills, attention to detail, physical fitness, and the ability to memorize and follow regulations for your facility.
