How can I have a successful career in law enforcement?

What does it take to have a long and great career in law enforcement? I just started and I am looking for some tips to help me out along the way! Thanks!

You do not state what field of law enforcement you are in.

Bottom line is be knowledgeable of all laws, courteous with those you come in contact with. Always be early at work, keep yourself in good physical condition, have good writing skills, been clean in person, have a clean neat uniform, and never forget to keep your immediate supervisor satisfied with your performance.

Aspire to either attend the three month FBI or the Northwestern University management course.

give a speeding ticket to a person going 5 miles over the speed limit.

watch police academy. :)
