Rabdan Academy, a global leader in safety, security, defense, emergency preparedness, and crisis management, has entered a training agreement with INTERPOL. This agreement paves the way for strengthened research, training, and expertise sharing cooperation.
As part of this partnership, Rabdan Academy is now an official member of the prestigious INTERPOL Global Academy Network. The network aims to elevate the standards of specialized training for law enforcement agencies globally, fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange among top institutions.
Under the agreement, Rabdan Academy and INTERPOL will identify areas for developing, organising, and implementing joint training activities and projects. This will encompass working together on courses, seminars, conferences, curricula, study tours and train-the-trainer programmes.
His Excellency James Anthony Morse, President of Rabdan Academy, said:’This partnership with the INTERPOL aligns with our strategic goal to play a crucial role in developing specialised skills and capabilities in safety, security, defence, emergency preparedness, crisis management and related fields. This is achieved through collaboration with a prominent network of key international and local partners. The agreement paves the way for elevating the quality of specialised academic and training programmes at Rabdan Academy and enhancing the efficiency of law enforcement personnel both within the region and beyond.’
His Excellency Valdecy Urquiza, Secretary General of INTERPOL, underscored the significance of collaborating with respected academic institutions such as Rabdan Academy to develop comprehensive global training methodologies and standards for law enforcement. He noted that such agreements benefit INTERPOL members and enhance the capabilities of the INTERPOL Global Academy Network.
The agreement includes commitments from both parties to support each other in developing training materials and curricula, exchanging academic and training resources, and sharing expertise and faculty members. This cooperation will create training opportunities and foster joint efforts in applied research on law enforcement-related topics.
The agreement also provides students at Rabdan Academy with access to courses and training tools from the INTERPOL Virtual Academy, enhancing their skills in international policing. Rabdan Academy’s training programmes will also receive accreditation from INTERPOL.
Rabdan Academy is committed to building partnerships with top institutions worldwide and regionally, nurturing national talent, and ensuring optimal preparedness to tackle future challenges.
Established in 2019, the INTERPOL Global Academy is a network of respected national or regional law enforcement training institutions that offer a comprehensive global approach to law enforcement education.
