NPCC
The National Police Cadet Corps (NPCC) nurtures students into disciplined, responsible and community-minded leaders through a wide range of leadership, character and adventure programmes. Members participate in drills, outdoor activities, crime prevention initiatives, community service and leadership training that develop resilience, teamwork and a strong sense of civic responsibility.

ABOUT THE CORPS
The Corps has grown in numbers and substance. Its popularity amongst our youths is largely attributed to its stature as the only uniformed youth organisation to enjoy close affiliation with the Singapore Police Force.
Our cadets are exposed to the unique opportunities to gain exposure and familiarity with Singapore’s crime prevention efforts to build a Safe and Secure Home.
Through a myriad of activities, values such as discipline, loyalty, integrity, resourcefulness, tenacity and civic-consciousness are inculcated to develop them into Caring and Responsible Citizens.
OUR MISSION
To develop our members to be active citizens and community leaders, by working in partnership with the Singapore Police Force to fight crime and keep Singapore safe.
OUR VISION
To become the best youth organisation in Singapore, one that actively helps to make Singapore the safest place in the world.
TRAINING FRAMEWORK
NPCC 6As Learning Path serves as an overarching framework that provides directions in the training and development of NPCC members.
The 6As – namely Aware, Acquire, Actuate, Aspire, Achieve and Aim – defines the progressive learning path of a cadet from a new recruit at Secondary One to a youth leaders and an officer. It also identifies the six desired training outcomes of its programmes.
