More About this Scheme

Our Story

NPCC has played a vital role in the Police’s community engagement strategy. NPCC has helped to develop its cadets to be active citizens and community leaders, by working in partnership with SPF, to fight crime and keep Singapore safe. Through this strong partnership with SPF, the Police’s purpose and core values are instilled in our NPCC members and shared with the wider community through the NPCC’s community outreach programmes.

Today, the NPCC continues to play a significant role in a whole-of-community approach in tackling challenges such as terrorism and cyber-threats. The NPCC has included SGSecure training in the enhanced Home Front Security Programme, allowing cadets to better understand Singapore’s security threats, and equipping them with emergency response skills.

With the increasing need for digital defence as a new, sixth pillar of Total Defence, NPCC has also collaborated with the SPF CyberCrime Command to pilot the CyberCrime Prevention Programme in schools.
