The Sergeant is responsible for planning, organizing, and implementing various in-service training opportunities for police officers. Duties also include being in charge of the department's in-house new-recruit field officer training program. 

 

RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION

The Kerrville Police Department is committed to recruiting, hiring, and maintaining only the highest quality employees to serve the residents of Kerrville.  The Sergeant takes a great deal of pride in his commitment and continually strives to improve all of the employees of the Department.

The recruitment and hiring of police officers is an extremely important task, as those employed by the Police Department directly represent what the department and the City of Kerrville have to offer residents.  Focused on attracting only the highest quality employees, the Sergeant and Background Investigators spend a great deal of time attending job fairs, speaking to college students, and finding new and innovative ways to advertise the City of Kerrville and its police department.
