Civil Nuclear Constabulary (CNC) held this week a webinar exploring opportunities for service leavers and veterans in armed policing.
Over 30 people joined the webinar and heard from serving Authorised Firearms Officers (AFOs) about transferable skills, their relocation journey, and how they had integrated into the local community.
The webinar covered the role of the CT-AFO, the Civil Nuclear Constabulary’s mission, the Code of Ethics, and offered insights into the recruitment process and specialisms that the CNC offer.
The CNC has over 1,110 Authorised Firearms Officers covering various sites.
The webinar was held in conjunction with British Forces Resettlement Services (BFRS), which was established in 2009 to provide a bridge between the Armed Forces Community and employers and training providers, to ensure the AFC and their families receive the right support, guidance, and opportunities in their transition from military service.
At their 'Military to Civilian Events' like this recent webinar, BFRS offer the Armed Forces Community the chance to meet employers, find jobs, access self-employment opportunities, enrol in training schemes and get in touch with a whole raft of support services specialising in the transition from Military to Civilian life.
