Our agency continues to explore innovative recruitment strategies to supplement traditional outreach methods. In years past, members of the WPD command staff have participated in various initiatives around recruitment for American law enforcement agencies, including a working group with the Police Executive Research Forum which resulted in a publication, The Workforce Crisis, and What Police Agencies Are Doing About It.
The Wilmington Police Department continues to lead the region in its recruitment efforts. The agency also works with the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives (NOBLE) and the National Latino Peace Officers Association regarding ongoing recruitment efforts and to share details about academy classes and career opportunities. Additional elements of the recruitment process are set forth for all Delaware law enforcement agencies through State law and the Council on Police Training (COPT). Those standards encompass administrative practices and procedures equal employment opportunity and recruitment job opportunity and publicity and professional and legal responsibilities in the selection process. The WPD, which is accredited through the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA), follows best-practice standards set by the Commission and followed by departments throughout the United States. The department’s recruitment and hiring processes reflect a collaboration between the WPD Human Resources Division and the City of Wilmington Department of Human Resources. Members of the Human Resources Division are responsible for administering the Wilmington Police Academy, and for conducting outreach throughout the year to share information about career opportunities with our accredited, 21st century law enforcement agency. The Wilmington Police Department is always working to recruit future police officers.
