Blackstone's Handbook for Policing Students 2024 provides an overview of key concepts needed for police training. It offers support for trainee police officers undertaking the Police Constable Degree Apprenticeship (PCDA) or the Degree Holders Entry Programme (DHEP) or learners aiming to join the police on a College of Policing undergraduate degree. The Handbook’s clear six-part structure meets the needs of all students entering policing through pre-join schemes or an alternative qualification route. Each part represents key stages of progression, such as initial training and confirmation. Additionally, Blackstone's Handbook for Policing Students 2024 covers topics such as stop, search, and entry, alcohol and drug offences, sexual offences, and cybercrime.
