On going training and upgrading of skills ensure that the members are keeping up with the latest policy and case law in the pursuit of excellence as police officers. Our members have the opportunity for a unique and diverse policing experience: along with the daily policing of the municipality, qualified members also police the waters of the peninsula including 52 islands; all work with and police four First Nations reservations; patrol and investigate incidents at the Victoria International Airport and ensure the safety of users of the Trans-Canada Highway falling within our detachment area.

There are several volunteers that give countless hours to assist with the community policing initiatives. Speed Watch members set up and monitor traffic throughout the detachment area giving a friendly reminder to drive within the posted speed limit.

Members of the Auxiliary Constable program conduct foot patrols and bike patrols and home security checks. They are also involved in Coast Watch and Marine Watch programs while assisting the regular members when required. Other volunteer programs include Neighborhood Watch and Block Watch. Also, the civilian staff at the detachment need mentioning as their dedicated work ensures police members are given the best opportunity  to conduct their investigations without distraction.
