ABOUT THE POLICE ROLE PLAY
The Police Role Play is a really difficult exercise. It effectively requires you to get into the shoes of another character, and then play that part down to a tee. Naturally, not all of us are the best actors in the world! However, it’s important to note that you aren’t being judged on your acting ability, but on your ability to demonstrate the core competencies. In our online course, we’ll cover each and every single one of the core competencies, and how to demonstrate them, in fantastic detail!
During the role play, you will be required to enter a room containing two people: a role play actor and an assessor. You’ll be playing the part of a customer services officer, and the role play actor will be someone who has come to you with a difficult matter. The role play starts as soon as you enter the room, so be ready! The actor will try to make it as difficult as possible for you, but the key is to remain calm. As long as you don’t panic, and can provide logical competency based solutions, you will be just fine!
Here at How2Become, we recognise that the role play section of the Police Assessment is one of the most challenging for candidates, and that is why we have created this course. With the right preparation, you can secure your career as an officer of the law.
INTRODUCTION
In this module, we’ll give you a detailed introduction to exactly what the role play is all about. We’ll outline the entire process, from start to finish, including the preparation phase. Along with this, we’ll also explain to you WHY the role play is used by the police, and how it can separate the strong candidates from the weak! In our introduction, you’ll learn:
- What the role play is;
- How it’s used to assess candidates;
- What the assessors look for;
- Things to watch out for.
THE CORE COMPETENCIES
In this module, we’ll show you the core competencies. The core competencies are the key behavioural characteristics required not just for the role play, but for the entire assessment centre! The better you can demonstrate these competencies, the better your chances will be of passing the role play. You can expect to be scored based on these competencies, so make sure you learn this module thoroughly! In this section, you’ll learn:
- Every single of the competencies, and what they entail;
- How each and every single competency is relevant to the police service;
- How to demonstrate each competency during the role play;
- How the assessors score you, based on these competencies.
SAMPLE RESPONSE AND ACTIONS TO ROLE PLAY EXERCISE

You’ll be shown how to answer the role play actor in a calm and professional manner, and demonstrate to the assessor that you are the right person for the role. We’ll give you tips on things to AVOID and things that you absolutely need to make sure you do, to ace the role play. In this section, you’ll learn:
- The type of language you should be using;
