Trooper Andrew Parker met with over 25 students at County Prep on Tuesday, May 10, 2016 to discuss law enforcement as a viable post-secondary career pathway. The presentation included an overview of the skills and minimum requirements to qualify for the New Jersey State Police exam. Trooper Parker discussed " A Day in the Life" of a trooper inclusive of both the rewards and challenges of serving the public. His presentation was dynamic, informative, and inspiring to the students because he spoke with honor and courage all of which was a testament to his dedication to the profession. Aside from Field Operations, he discussed career opportunities in Forensic Science, Information Technology, Homeland Security, Special Operations, and Administrative capacities further underscoring the value of up-skilling and furthering one's education.
