Hi Baller,
Congrats on the PR!! Are you talking about the written tests or physical?
Most people prepare for the ACT/APCAT by using PolicePrep, either the book or the online version.
Go to Policeprep.com and select Alberta tests

Thanks! I have already been in contact with recruiting and they recommended that book as well. I plan to go through it when I land and get my CPR certificate. If there is any advice you could give me with respect to the interviews that will take place during the application process, that would be highly appreciated!

Re: Joining the Canadian Police from the UK
Keep an eye on the Join EPS website and book yourself onto a BDI interview workshop prior to a BDI. Also go to the information session prior to that. In relation to the personal disclosure interview and subsequent polygraph, just be completely honest about your past. We need to know it all. Applicants fail because they think they can hide it, or play it down, and then come clean as they are on polygraph. At that point it's too late. So, be yourself.
Arrange a Ride Along too, Recruiting or myself can arrange that for you.
Send me a PM and I'll give you my work email.
