About KPK Police β Central Police Office
The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Police is one of Pakistan’s largest and most operationally active provincial police forces. The Central Police Office (CPO) in Peshawar is the administrative and operational headquarters β overseeing the full spectrum of policing functions across KPK’s districts and divisions.
The civilian technical staff at CPO perform functions that are foundational to police administration: records management, financial documentation, engineering maintenance, land administration, official correspondence, and transport services. These are not frontline policing roles β they are the institutional support infrastructure that allows the police organization to function administratively.
For candidates seeking a permanent government job in KPK with stability, pension entitlement, and government medical benefits, these CPO civilian posts represent genuine long-term career security in a high-profile provincial institution. The ETEA testing process ensures merit-based selection β making these accessible to any qualified KPK resident.
Patwari post has the highest seat count (13) but requires two separate credentials most candidates overlook. The Patwari post requires both: (1) a Patwar Course Certificate from a recognized institution, AND (2) your name must be registered in the Register of Patwari Candidates maintained by the office of the District Collector. If your name is not in this register, you cannot apply for the Patwari post regardless of your Patwar Course Certificate. Contact your District Collector’s office to confirm registration status before applying.
How to Apply
1. Visit etea.edu.pk from June 8, 2026
Go to www.etea.edu.pk. The ETEA website will have the full application form and document requirements available from June 8, 2026. Do not attempt to apply before this date β the documents and form will not be available. Visit on or after June 8 to begin the process.
2. Create Your ETEA Profile and Fill the Online Application
Register on the ETEA portal and create your applicant profile. Fill in your personal information (name as per CNIC, CNIC number, date of birth, domicile district), educational qualifications, technical certificates (DAE, Patwar Course, CAD Certificate, LTV license as applicable), and contact details. Apply for the specific post matching your qualifications.
3. Pay the Application Fee via Easy Paisa, UBL Omni, or UBL Branch
The ETEA application fee must be paid through Easy Paisa, UBL Omni/App, or any UBL bank branch. The fee amount is displayed on the ETEA portal after you complete your application. Keep the deposit slip/receipt β you will need to submit it as part of the application confirmation process.
4. Verify via E-NADRA or NADRA E-Sahulat
ETEA uses E-NADRA or NADRA E-Sahulat (Kiosk) for applicant identity verification as part of the online application process. Ensure your CNIC details are current and your NADRA record is accurate before applying. Discrepancies between your CNIC details and your application will cause verification failures.
5. Download Roll Number Slip from etea.edu.pk
After successful application, ETEA will send an SMS notification, and your roll number slip will be available for download at etea.edu.pk. Download and print your roll number slip β it is required for the written test. Do not wait for a physical slip by mail; download it directly from the ETEA website.
6. Apply Separately for Each Post If Applying for More Than One
Candidates may apply for more than one advertised post if they meet the eligibility criteria for each. However, each post requires a separate application with a separate fee payment. A single application cannot cover multiple posts.
Apply Online at ETEA β Deadline: June 25, 2026
Forms available from June 8 at etea.edu.pk. KPK domicile required.

π‘ 7 Practical Tips Before You Apply
- Sub Engineer applicants β the CAD certificate is separately required alongside your DAE Civil. Many DAE Civil candidates assume their diploma alone qualifies them. The advertisement explicitly requires a CAD (Computer-Aided Design) certificate from a government-recognized institution in addition to the DAE. This CAD requirement is not embedded in the DAE β it is a separate credential. If you have completed your DAE Civil but have not done a CAD course, you currently do not meet the eligibility criteria for this post. CAD training courses are available at TEVTA and technical institutes across KPK.
- Junior Scale Stenographer applicants β shorthand speed is tested practically, not just on paper. The 50 WPM shorthand and 35 WPM typing requirements will be verified through practical assessment at the test stage β not just through a certificate. If your actual shorthand and typing speed is below these thresholds, practicing a skill you list as a qualification will expose the gap immediately. Test your actual shorthand and typing speed before applying. If you are below these levels, build your speed before submitting the application.
- Patwari applicants β confirm your Register of Patwari Candidates status before anything else. The Patwari post requirement of having your name registered in the District Collector’s Khwanindagaan (Patwari Candidates Register) is a prerequisite that many candidates discover they do not meet after submitting their application. Visit your District Collector’s office, confirm whether your name is in the register, and if not β understand the registration process and timeline before applying. Without this registration, your Patwari application will be rejected at the verification stage regardless of your Patwar Course Certificate.
- Driver applicants β the LTV license must be for Light Transport Vehicle, current and valid. The Driver post requires a valid LTV (Light Transport Vehicle) license. If your driving license is expired, renew it before applying. An expired license at the document verification stage is a disqualifier. The advertisement also mentions “proficiency in maintaining and repairing heavy vehicles” β practical vehicle maintenance skill is assessed at the interview/test stage, so ensure your mechanical knowledge of vehicles is current.
- Minority quota seats (9 out of 13 Patwari seats) are specifically significant β if you belong to a religious minority, this post has exceptional representation. Of the 13 Patwari posts, 9 are reserved for minority quota candidates. This is an unusually high minority representation in a single post within a single advertisement. Minority candidates from KPK who meet the Patwari eligibility criteria (Intermediate + Patwar Course Certificate + Register entry) should prioritize this application given the proportion of reserved seats relative to the total.
- Apply in the first week of the June 8 opening β not near June 25. ETEA application portals for KPK government job advertisements experience high traffic near closing dates. Applying in the first week of June 8 ensures faster processing, no last-minute technical issues, and early verification. Being among the first applicants also means your roll number slip is available earlier, giving you more preparation time for the written test.
- Computer Operator applicants β Option 2 (Bachelor’s + 1-year IT diploma) is widely accessible and equally valid. The Computer Operator post has two qualification routes. Option 1 is a BCS/BIT degree. Option 2 is any Bachelor’s degree plus a 1-year Information Technology diploma from a recognized institution. This makes the Computer Operator post accessible to graduates in any discipline β Arts, Commerce, Science β who have also completed an IT diploma from a recognized technical institute or university. If you hold a non-IT bachelor’s degree and an IT diploma, your qualification is fully valid for this post. Mention both credentials clearly in your ETEA profile.

(FAQ) Frequently Asked Questions
1. Are these permanent government jobs or contract positions?
All advertised positions are permanent government posts in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Police / Central Police Office civilian establishment. Permanent BPS government service means full employment protections under KPK government service rules, annual salary increments under the BPS scale, pension entitlement after qualifying years of service, and access to government medical and leave benefits. These are not project-based, contract, or temporary posts.
2. Can I apply for more than one post in this advertisement?
Yes β a candidate may apply for more than one advertised post if they meet the eligibility criteria for each post individually. However, each application must be submitted separately through the ETEA portal with a separate fee payment for each post. A single application cannot cover multiple positions. Ensure your qualifications genuinely match the requirements for each post you apply for β applying for posts you are ineligible for will waste your fee and may flag your account for duplicate/invalid applications.
3. What is the test format for these KPK Police posts?
ETEA conducts written tests for KPK government recruitment. For most posts, the test includes subject-specific questions relevant to the post (computer knowledge for Computer Operator, stenography/office skills for Stenographer, civil engineering for Sub Engineer) alongside general knowledge, Urdu, and basic English. For the Driver post, a practical driving test and vehicle maintenance assessment are typically part of the process. For Stenographer,Β a practical shorthand and typing assessment is conducted. ETEA publishes test details and roll number slips on its website β review the ETEA website after your application is processed for specific test date and format information.
4. I have a KPK domicile but currently live in Lahore or Karachi β can I apply?
The eligibility criterion is permanent residency in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa β not current physical residence. If you hold a valid KPK domicile certificate showing permanent residency in a KPK district, you are eligible to apply regardless of where you currently live or work. You will need to travel to KPK for the written test (conducted by ETEA at designated test centers in KPK) and for any subsequent interview or selection stages. These posts are based in Peshawar, so selected candidates would need to relocate to take up the position if currently based elsewhere.
