About Velocity Prep

Velocity Prep is Canada’s leading police applicant mentorship program, helping future officers prepare for every stage of the hiring process — from written exams to interviews and fitness testing. Led by a former Chief of Police, our team provides high-quality training, coaching, and community support to help applicants succeed in joining the force.

Role Overview

We’re looking for an experienced Written Exam Instructor to lead our live online coaching sessions for RCMP, municipal, and other local police service written exams.

Each live session runs for about one hour, structured in two parts:

  • Practice Section: You’ll present exam-style questions, allow students time to answer, and simulate test conditions.
  • Coaching Section: You’ll walk through each question in detail — breaking down the reasoning, strategies, and correct answers while teaching test-taking skills and explaining common mistakes.

This is a part-time, flexible position with the opportunity to grow into larger roles as Velocity Prep expands.

Responsibilities

  • Host live online written exam prep sessions for RCMP, municipal, and local agencies.
  • Provide clear explanations, test strategies, and reasoning for all practice questions.
  • Support and engage with students through Q&A and feedback.
  • (Optional but preferred) Contribute additional practice questions or materials to expand our question bank.
  • Collaborate with the Velocity Prep team to refine and improve training content over time.

Requirements

  • Prior experience with RCMP, municipal, or local police written exams (as an applicant, officer, or instructor).
  • Strong understanding of written exam formats, question types, and effective test strategies.
  • Confident communicator and engaging instructor — comfortable teaching online.
  • Reliable internet connection and professional presentation skills.
  • Must be based in Canada.

Nice to Have

  • Existing question bank or written exam prep materials.
  • Previous experience in adult education, tutoring, or coaching.
  • Background in policing, corrections, or law enforcement training.

Perks

  • Flexible schedule — remote position.
  • Opportunity for long-term collaboration and advancement within Velocity Prep.

How to Apply

Please submit your resume, cover letter, and any relevant teaching or exam prep experience
