South Wales Police - Police Learning Centre

Brief overview of the Project

The South Wales Police Learning Centre (PLC) on the Headquarters site in Bridgend is a major investment to enable effective training of new and existing police officers and staff in South Wales. The site consists of 3 separate projects including the main building, the purpose-built on site training facility and the extensive site-wide facilities. The site houses all the teaching requirements within the one main building, on one site.

The four-storey building is a permanent base for Learning and Development Services and Human Resources, and also accommodates an office facility for the police and crime commissioner. Inside the training facility are two large training suites for fitness tests, taser training and officer safety training, plus classrooms and a lecture theatre. The development is provided with mechanical, electrical, and public health (MEP) engineering systems and also includes a generous site carpark.
