question for jim

[junior]

do you need prior law enforcement experience to become a member of the illinois secretary of state police ?  i looked at their website, and my take was that it was required .  i guess i could call but thought i would ask here first ;D.  it also mentioned something about their trainee program for investigators.  are all of their uniformed officers considered "investigators" ? i thought the website would be a little more informative .

Junior:

The Illinois SOS Police, is one of the best kept secrets in Illinois.  I'm sorry to say I don't know a thing about them, other than that they exist.  

If you checked their Web site, you are well ahead of me.  They don't have any representation on the Illinois Fire & Police Commissioners Association, so I don't know how one goes about applying.

I guess your best bet would be to call them and ask.  Going to the source is usually the best approach to take.

Sorry I could not have been of much help.
