The PRP organized training on project management methodology, "PRINCE2 Foundation and Practitioner",
at the Police Staff College. In total, eighteen participants attended the PRINCE2 Project Management
Methodology training. The main objective of the training was to develop participants' capacity on project
management. After completing the course, participants undertook an examination, resulting in eleven
participants receiving the PRINCE2 Foundation Certificate and four participants receiving the PRINCE2
Practitioner Certificate.
During this period, a ToR for the delivery of an IT Service Methodology course was developed and submitted
for processing. The training is expected to be delivered in 2013.
A review of the Basic ICT Skills Awareness Training course was initiated by the PRP's Information,
Communication, and Technology Component. The IGP endorsed group membership and commencement of
the review process. Two workshops were conducted at Police HQ during 2012 to discuss the revision of the
current Basic ICT Skills Awareness training. The workshops, chaired by AIG, ICT, examined the content
proposed for the new Basic ICT Skills training package, considered office software to be covered and
decided on the duration of the course. ToRs for a training package development were prepared and released
for tendering after having been reviewed by the Review Group. The revision is expected to be completed in
2013.
At the DMP's request, 1,100 Basic ICT Skills Awareness training manuals were printed and provided to the
DMP Training Academy for use in computer training courses organised by the DMP.
Networking: Discussions with the United Kingdom Border Agency and Immigration were held on perspective
training opportunities in 2013. The discussions will be followed by a further meeting in January 2013.
