Swedish police launch Prövningsbussen for police training applicants

The Swedish Police Authority in region Mitt is launching the Prövningsbussen to simplify travel to the assessment test for aspiring police officers. The bus departs from Västerås, Uppsala, and Gävle to Plikt- och prövningsverket in Stockholm, with police officers on board to answer questions.

The Swedish Police Authority in region Mitt has launched the Prövningsbussen as a recruitment initiative for those considering applying to police training. The bus departs from Västerås, Uppsala, and Gävle to the assessment test at Plikt- och prövningsverket in Stockholm. During the trip, police officers from the region are on board to answer questions about the profession, training, and working as a police officer. The idea is that applicants do not have to travel alone but can journey with other interested candidates and officers. The assessment takes place on May 9-10 during a weekend, a unique opportunity compared to regular weekday tests. This facilitates participation for those who work or study. To join, first apply to police training via Plikt- och prövningsverket's website. If requirements are met, book a seat on the bus. Contacts: Gävleborg (elin.welander@polisen.se), Uppsala (veronica.onnela@polisen.se), Västmanland (kajsa.tegermark@polisen.se) for more information or to express interest. The initiative aims to make the path to a police career simpler.
