THE CBI ACADEMY
The CBI felt the need of an Academy of its
own right from the day one after its
inception, but for some reason or other, it had
to wait for over 30 years to have one. During
these three decades, it got its personnel
trained at various Police Training Schools
th
and Academies. On 10 January, 1996,
fortunately, its wish was fulfilled. The CBI
had its own Academy.
Located in the midst of a sprawling
green campus, surrounded with bottle palm
trees, rose garden, it greets visitors on entry
with freshness and serenity. The CBI Academy
is located at Ghaziabad (U.P.). Spread across
over 26 acres, in a beautiful setting that is both
inspiring and invigorating, it is ideally situated
– in the city and away from its din and
demerits. A Senior Officer of the rank of DIG of
Police looks after it. The Academy has its own
teaching faculty, but for specialized
teaching/training, experts are called from
among the Field Officers of the CBI and
Departments of the Governments and Public
Sector Undertakings. The Academy has most
modern, spacious buildings, housing its
Administrative Block, Academic Block,
Hostels and Residential Blocks.
The Academy, now caters to the training
needs of its officers and other ranks. It
conducts orientation courses regularly for its
officers. It has, over the years, developed as the
Centre of Excellence for training of not only
police officers from CBI, CPOs and States, but
for a large number of police officers from
abroad. It also caters to the needs of Chief
Vigilance Officers and Vigilance Officers of the
Public Sector Undertakings and the
Nationalized Banks of India and imparts
training to officers of all ranks from the various
States of India.
