Best Answer

Depending on the specific agency, the geographic location and municipality type (city, town or county), becoming a local police patrol officer or traffic cop can begin with a high school diploma. However, many employers require one or two years of college coursework in criminal justice, law enforcement or related studies.

Some jurisdictions (usually large cities), have civiliantraffic aides - again, you would have to check the job qualification with the partcular city you are interested in.
