Choosing a Uniformed Public Services course at Nottingham College could lead to an exhilarating career in the Armed Forces, Emergency Services, Security or Prison Services. 

You’ll get a brilliant all-round grasp of the skills and discipline you’ll need to enter these challenging but rewarding professions.

We also offer exciting hands-on experiences alongside your learning. Recent examples have included: Police riot training and public order training; Police role play; training with the Army; visits to fire stations and a wide range of outdoor and adventure training. 

Each year our Public Services students lead on our Poppy Appeal, raising funds for the Royal British Legion, as well as taking part in sponsored adventure activities.
