The special training course for bachelor’s degree graduates of the Law Enforcement Academy who have been appointed to investigator positions in prosecutor’s offices has been completed. The course was aimed at deepening the professional knowledge and skills acquired at the Academy based on the specific requirements for organising and conducting preliminary investigations in prosecutor’s offices.
As part of the programme, advanced training sessions were held on organising preliminary investigations, the tactics of conducting investigative actions, the application of procedural coercive measures, as well as methods of investigating certain types of crimes.
