NH is catching up, not bad pay. Their retirement is way better than ours too.


Posted by: tazoez

No Quinn though -- but I have found that some departments actually pay extra for having a degree in Criminal Justice.


Posted by: JoninNH

Manchester NH is always taking applications...


Posted by: zebraninempd

Manchester will be testing three times a year for the next several years to bring the department up to its complement.


Posted by: JoninNH

And for the first time in my memory, is looking for reserve police officers (NH Full-time certified only).


Posted by: FghtNIrsh17

Any Manchester, NH PD officers here?? If so can I PM you with some questions???


Posted by: zebraninempd

Im a Sgt. on Manchester with a little over 20 years in.


Posted by: masscopguy

I assume to be certified you must be a gradute of a fulltime academy, does NH allow self-sponsorship?


Posted by: NH Cop

Several of our Officers had been with Manchester PD. Very busy place. I’ve worked several cases with MPD. Good group of Officers. I had 6 MPD officers in my academy years back. All good sh---.
I would put an application.


Posted by: jsc4324

NH does not do the self-sponsor any more. You have to be hired by a dept. to be attending the academy.

Hudson is a great department to work for. I work with them frequently as I work right next door. Manchester is also a top notch department. VERY busy as I sure the SGT can inform you better.

No, NH does not.

From the NH Police Standards and Training Council website:

Q1. I want to pursue a career as a police, state corrections or probation/parole officer in New Hampshire. How can I enroll in the police academy or the corrections academy?

A1. Neither Academy accepts tuition students. To attend the police academy you must be hired by a state, local or county law enforcement agency in New Hampshire. Your employer will then send you to the Academy. All associated costs are borne by the State and your employer. To attend the New Hampshire Corrections Academy, you must first be hired by the New Hampshire Department of Corrections, and all costs are borne by the agency and by the State.

I am a Hudson PD officer and will be for the next couple of weeks. PM me with any questions.

New Hampshire retirement is 20 years=50% of top 3. Details are included.
Problem is very few details in many towns. Too small. Also salary is low and no Quinn. So most can't retire at 20 unless you work for Nashua,Manchester
Salem,etc. 50% of poo is poo.


Posted by: AdamJ1984

Clancy, how are Ralph and Chief Wiggum doing?


Posted by: onetime

does anyone know if any NH Depts accept full time out of state academies? Also, does anyone have any knowledge of residency requirements in NH?

The Police Department who would be hiring you would send in your certification paperwork to the NH Police Standards and Training Council in Concord for a review. Most of the time they will accept it. You would then sit in on some classes while the recruits are in there 14 week academy. If you go for a state job. You would have to have residency.

So, just for clerification. If you are hired by a city or town you do not need to be a NH resident?

I know several officers from Salem, Seabrook Plaistow Police Departments that live in MA. Unless the City/Town requires it.

Any NH departments NOT require a sit and reach in their PAT for those of us who are non flexible?

No. That is part of the standards. No way around it.


Posted by: CivilServiceNO1Fan

Thanks NH.


Posted by: copper24

Would a SSPO transfer into a town in NH? and would you have to pass a PT test if they did accept that academy if hired?


Posted by: FLCOPZSPD

Copper24.......You still must meet all the pre-hiring and background investigation requirements, pass the medical and psychological exams and the physical fitness test. You will also be required to pass the on-going physical fitness test every 3 years to maintain your New Hampshire certification. We are reciprocal with all other states in the US and recognize their training if it is at least equal in scope to ours. NH FT Academy is ONLY 12 weeks.


Posted by: zebraninempd

Don't forget about the polygraph. Most cities and towns require that also.


Posted by: copper24

Ok thanks!!! and then I would only have to take the law portion of the academy correct?


Posted by: POPCOP

The Police Chief in Hudson will make you attend the full-time academy even if out of state certified because of National Accreditation standards. Everyone has to take a polygraph exam and everyone must meet at least the 35th % Cooper PT standards. If hired after 01/01/01 you will need to take a PT test every three years to keep you certification.


Posted by: Fitzwilly

i just recently graduated with a bs in CJ from a Quinn bill cert MA state school and moved home with my parents who just recently moved to Hudson nh from Salem nh. I'm mass resident, have been all my life...havent switched over to their NH address because i dont know exactly what the future holds and dont want to be switching multiple times in a short period of time.

my question is for the test application should i put my current address in NH or my permanent address in MA?

and i see that the agency is nationally accredited but what's the morale like? is it pretty squared away?


Posted by: Copper82

Popcop,
I emailed a HPD recruiter the other day and he stated that out of staters, like myself, wouldn't have to take the full academy. I believe the NH academy site states there are two week law courses if you are certified from outside of the state.
