The Hunter's police ranks will have a few more boots on the ground today thanks to a program designed to help experienced officers from other jurisdictions join the NSW Police Force.
The Professional Mobility Program started in May this year to give officers from New Zealand and other jurisdictions across Australia the training they need to join local ranks.
Nine officers completed 12 weeks training and will now spend 6 months as probationary constables before resuming the rank they had previously.
Three of those officers are coming to the Hunter - one each to Port Stephens, Newcastle and Lake Macquarie.
