Something which has featured strongly in member feedback is a desire to expand your knowledge, beyond operational training. The Association is committed to providing the membership with Continual Professional (and personal) Development, without encroaching on the Service’s responsibility to training senior leaders in policing.

In 2022, we have delivered CPD which looks at active bystanders and also several sessions on personal and peer wellbeing. We also have inputs in the pipeline for the coming year, however it is important that we deliver CPD that members want. 

If there is anything you wish us to consider or organise for member learning, please contact research@scottishpolicesupers.org.uk

David Kennedy, staff side secretary of the PNB and general secretary of the Scottish Police Federation, said: “It’s outrageous if they decide they’re not going to give the day off to police officers." https://1919magazine.co.uk/april2026/police-officers-world-cup-bank-holiday/

“Mackie’s actions resulted in an officer requiring hospital treatment. Such attacks on officers who are carrying out their duties are wholly unacceptable." https://www.scotland.police.uk/what-s-happening/news/2026/april/man-jailed-for-assault-of-officer-in-edinburgh/
