Hi,
I've heard that if one joins the police force, no need to join NS right? But what if you quit the police force? Do you still need to make up for the NS?
What's the basic requirement? Like for O Levels, how many points must you score?
Thanks.
If I've not served my National Service, can I apply?
Yes, you can. SPF will have to check with Central Manpower Base (CMPB) prior to your appointment for approval to release you from full-time National Service enlistment.
All male Singaporeans/ Singapore Permanent Residents who have not completed full-time national service must serve a minimum term of 5 years (known as Minimum Term of Engagement, MTE) as a regular officer so as to fulfil your full-time National Service obligation.
Ok, thanks for the information.
What does "at least 5 GCE O level credits" means? Does it means passing 5 subjects including English and maths?
It's definitely not advisable to sign on with only O levels.
Think far!
Your educational qualification is very important in the SPF. If you do not have a good one, i'd rather you consider an alternative career and not the public sector.
