Education, learning and training

Learning, skill development and training are important for professionals in private and public sectors – investigators, police, judiciary and other law enforcement officers – to ensure robust governance. Keeping abreast of newer technologies, legal and regulatory amendments and upgrading investigative skills are imperative.

From an organisation’s vantage point, learning, development and training are important to enrich, grow and nurture human resource capital.
