CBI Academy joins Interpol Global Academy Network

A letter of acceptance was signed by DIG (Training) Mohit Gupta of the CBI Academy with his counterpart at Interpol Glenn Martindale, Director, Capacity Building and Training Directorate based at Global Complex for Innovation in Singapore, through a virtual signing ceremony. The letter of acceptance was signed after detailed deliberations with the international police cooperation body Interpol in consultation with the Union Home Ministry, External Affairs Ministry and the Department of Personnel and Training.

“The three-year-old Interpol Global Academy Network aims to support Interpol in leading a global approach to law enforcement training… The CBI Academy has become the 10th member of INTERPOL Global Academy Network. It is a step towards CBI Academy’s growing engagement with International Law Enforcement Institutions enabling effective capacity building and innovation activities,” an CBI spokesperson said.

The CBI, which is a nodal body for all matters related to Interpol, conducts several international training programmes through its academy based in Ghaziabad, neighbouring Delhi. “Several programmes have been conducted in collaboration with foreign agencies like US Homeland, French Embassy, FBI, NCCU UK, NCA UK, RCMP Canada along with four Interpol Global Programmes,” the spokesperson said.

Speaking during the ceremony, Martindale said that CBI Academy is a premier training institution and extremely well placed to contribute to the Interpol Global Academy Network.

“…This collaboration will not only be highly beneficial to police personnel in India but also offer high quality capacity building, capability development and training opportunities to police personnel across the world,” the CBI said in the statement.

The agency said joining the network will further enhance the CBI Academy’s international visibility, provide valuable contribution to discussions of international and regional scope in the field of law enforcement education and benefit from knowledge exchange with other members of the network.
