Psychological Services
Committed to providing comprehensive psychological assessment services to customers.
For more than 40 years Calian has applied its expert, valid and court-defensible selection protocols to support Canada’s law enforcement agencies. As the largest national provider of psychological assessments, Calian ensures the suitability of members to perform their duties in a safe and effective manner.
Why Calian?
Calian applies expert and court-defensible protocols to support clients such as Canada Border Services Agency, Government of Alberta, Correctional Services Canada, Ottawa Police and Peel Regional Police. Our network of clinical and forensic psychologists has extensive training in law enforcement and specialty team selection with gold standard psychological assessment protocol.
Selection Services
We provide recruit selection in hiring of officer candidates and selection in specialty unit placement (i.e. Public Safety Unit; Tactical Unit). We provide ongoing continuous improvement support to ensure best practices as our customers’ needs evolve.
Suitability to Carry a Duty Firearm
We also provide re-arming assessments of employees for whom the duty firearm and defensive tools have been removed—such as following a critical incident, firearm discharge on duty, a traumatic event, or following non-administrative removal for substance abuse including recovery and/or sobriety management.
Fitness for Duty
Similar to re-arming, we provide fitness for duty assessments following medical leave for psychological reasons and psychological clearance for return to full duties after medical approval has been granted.
Reporting and Legal Defense Services
Calian provides assessment results such as “meets” or “does not meet” required standards to the project authority or designated representative. Feedback is also available on individual assessment results to candidates upon request. Calian also defends psychological evaluations when required.
Intervention Services
Intervention for specific concerns (addictions treatment and relapse prevention programming) and post-traumatic incident intervention at both an individual and group level as required.
