Minimum requirements

  • The general careers page lists age 18 or older, a valid Georgia Class C driver's license and a high school diploma or GED with a copy or transcript. The age wording is not independently verified as the complete minimum for every sworn patrol appointment.
  • The overview requires a clean background: no felonies and no violent or aggravated misdemeanors within the past five years. This is not verified as the complete disqualification policy or a guarantee that other history is acceptable.
  • Applicants must be able to obtain Georgia POST certification and any additional certification for their position. Prior POST certification is not stated as a universal prerequisite in this overview; academy sponsorship, costs and employment arrangements are unverified.
  • The office values strong verbal and written communication, comfort using computers and basic typing. These are published qualities, not a verified scored test or typing-speed threshold.

Selected requirements, not a complete eligibility or disqualifier checklist.

Lateral entry
