What is the best way to become a state trooper?
I am a senior at Norman County West and will be hopefully filling out applications for college soon. I have been looking into being a state trooper for a long time now and I have a few questions to ask. What college classes are needed to be a trooper, and how many years? I have also been told that it is better to work your way up from a lower position (say a deputy sheriff) and than become a state trooper. What would be the best way to become a state trooper, work my way up from police officer to a trooper, or just work hard at school and dive right into becoming a state trooper. Also what are some good personality traits to have as a trooper? Thanks for the response! :) #police #criminal-justice #government #state-trooper
