Germany
The second highest career bracket in German law enforcement leads to the rank of Police commissioner or Kommissar. Entry requires a law study at a university and training encompasses 2 to 3 years in a police academy. The highest possible rank within this career bracket is that of Erster Hauptkommissar. The work of a Kommissar in general centers on investigation of felonies, depending on the branch of police and department he belongs to. The adequate equivalent for a British Commissioner would be (Landes-) Polizeipräsident or Inspekteur der Polizei, titles that differ among the police forces in Germany.
