  1. Police Explorers Thread

    I am a Cadet for my local Sheriff's Office in southeastern Michigan. Been doing it since January of 2016, for almost three years. I am the Captain of my Unit and I have loved every minute of it. For those of you who don't know what Explorers are, Law Enforcement Exploring is a hands-on program open to young men and women typically who are 14 years old through 20 years old, interested in a career in law enforcement or a related field in the criminal justice system.The program offers young adults a personal awareness of the criminal justice system through training, practical experiences, competition and other activities. Additionally, the program promotes personal growth through character development, respect for the rule of law, physical fitness, good citizenship and patriotism. Explorer posts are typically found all over different Law Enforcement agencies throughout your state. Explorers will typically engage in activities such as Football Games, Parades, Traffic Details, Special Events, and Ride Alongs with real Law Enforcement Officers. This is also a good opportunity to get your foot in the door with a local agency, so you can see if this is the type of career you want to have, and if you wish to pursue the career, many agencies have some type of agreement where if you complete a few years as an explorer, they would hire you on full time and put you through the academy. If you are explorer, feel free to share your information below and any stories you may have!
