This junior officers course is the first to be held since 2018, and is scheduled to commence today and last for two months. The aim is to offer training on leadership, management, monitoring and evaluation, risk assessment, policing duties, information technology (IT), and Strategic Planning, among several other relevant aspects.
The Police engaged teachers and students of the Patentia Secondary School, WBD in activities during a visit last week; and ranks of the La Grange Fire Station later facilitated informative sessions with this school, delivering lectures and practical demonstrations on fire safety with a focus on the proper usage of fire extinguishers
