The City of North Liberty is accepting applications for full-time Police Officers. Certified law enforcement officers are preferred but will accept and train uncertified candidates.

A study guide and a practice test can be obtained through Stanard and Associates at https://www.applytoserve.com/Study/. Testing dates and locations for non-certified applicants will be announced at a later date.

Applicants who are current certified law enforcement officers are eligible for a lateral transfer. The City may consider buying out current employment contracts.
