Level 3 Extended Diploma for Entry to the Uniformed Services
Introduction
The Level 3 Uniformed Services course at Highlands College is designed for students who aspire to careers in the police, fire service, armed forces, prison service, customs, or other public safety roles. This course provides a unique opportunity to develop the knowledge, discipline, and leadership skills required to succeed in highly sought-after uniformed service roles both in Jersey and across the UK.
Delivered by a dedicated and experienced team, the two-year programme offers access to real-world experiences, including inter-departmental emergency simulations and behind-the-scenes insights into local institutions such as the Magistrate’s Court. Through a blend of academic study, practical training, and sector engagement, students gain a deep understanding of the demands and rewards of working in public service.
With strong emphasis on personal development, teamwork, and resilience, students are supported as individuals and challenged to grow in confidence, leadership, and professionalism. Expectations are high, and learners consistently rise to meet them - progressing to university or moving directly into impactful and meaningful careers in the uniformed services.
