Don't waste your time..Trinidad is a mess when it comes to that..I don't think we even have criminologists here..people always getting away with crime down here..my advise is pick another country!

You should see the police in Trinidad, they are pathetic.

They definitely aren't hiring "criminologists!"

Does anybody hire criminologists? I know police departments hire detectives and police officers. Maybe you want to look into joining the police force. It's an easy job, they give you a machine gun and you stand on the street your whole shift, while the criminals do their dirty work in the back alleys.

dey doh even listen to de ones we have here for free yuh tink dey go pay ?

I have travelled to T&T several times and each time I go things are only worsening there. Crime is so bad that even the residents there do not go out and fear for their safety. I have gone into police stations and have seen portions of the jails as a visitor and trust me, that is not a place that you should be using your hard earned credentials and experiences towards. There is very little structure there and it sounds like you wish to make a difference with your knowledge, skillset and overseas experiences...so I would suggest that you continue looking for a place who will appreciate all of what you have to offer. There is little room for advancement and I think you will be hard-pressed to find deserving rewards for your accomplishments and countless years of hard work.

If you are really determined to go then perhaps you can check out this site I found on google:

Best wishes in your future endeavours wherever you may go...

I wouldn't recommend working in Trinidad in THAT field. You honestly don't know who the criminal is most of the time.

not very good... we much rather depend on the rats that always "missing" weed after a bust..

I do not think you will have much luck in the area of Criminology here in T & T. However, I suggest you try the tertiary Level institutions such as UWI, Cipriani Labour college, SBCS and Roytec. They offer Programmes in Security Administration so you might be of some use to them.

Hope this helps.
