Honolulu Police Department HI
The Honolulu Police Department (HPD) is a Department of Defense SkillBridge program industry partner. Our SkillBridge program is for retiring or transitioning service members who are interested in a policing career with the HPD. Selected service members embark on an immersive experience during their last 90 days of service. During the program, service members gain valuable hands-on work experience, prepare for the police academy, and develop an understanding of the policing profession. Additionally, while in the program, service members can concurrently undergo the application process to be an entry-level police recruit at the HPD. The goal is that upon release from active duty, participants will enter into the next available HPD recruit class with the tools and skills to be successful in the police academy and in their policing career.
