To better equip Junior Police Officers (JPOs) in responding to the mass media, the Junior Police Officers Development Learning Division (JD) of the Police College planned to run five half-day Public Relations (PR) and Media Training Workshops for JPOs this financial year.

Jointly conducted by JD, the Police Public Relations Branch and a PR company, the workshops aimed at briefing the JPOs on the Force's PR and media strategies, enhancing their understanding of ways to build a constructive working relationship with the media, and enhancing their ability to apply the appropriate skills and techniques in communicating with the media.

Up until now, three workshops had been held. The next workshop will be organised for Kowloon East and Marine Regions on February 5.
