3. I’m interested in becoming a police officer for the Village of Wheeling. What do I need to do?

The Village of Wheeling participates in the Northwest Municipal Conference Testing Consortium biannually for the preliminary written and physical agility tests for both police officers. You should call the Northwest Municipal Conference in Des Plaines, Illinois at 847-296-9200 and inform them you would like to be notified when the Village of Wheeling is next participating in police officer/firefighter testing. They will add you to the appropriate list and provide you with all necessary information.

In this way, you can apply to a number of participating municipalities at the same time. Your test scores will be provided to each participating municipality who will then contact you according to their specific policies and procedures.
