Superintendents Cheung Ka-ho and Yu Siu-chuen, who had completed a ten-month distance-learning course under the arrangement of the College previously, went to Australia between April 28 and May 10 to attend the Executive Leadership Programme offered by the Australian Institute of Police Management (AIPM). Cheung and Yu joined 25 executive officers from the local police force, fire service and emergency rescue services in Australia for study and exchange views to enhance their leadership and managerial skills. The programme covered a wide range of topics, including strategic planning theories, leadership development, and management of public safety and emergency services.
Also arranged by the College, Superintendents Wong Hau-suen and Hui Yee-wai participated in the Executive Development Strategy (3) Programme organised by AIPM in Australia from May 13 to 17. The programme employed research-backed methodologies to cultivate the leadership capabilities of mid-level police managers. Together with 19 law enforcement officers from Australia, New Zealand and Fiji, Wong and Hui learned how to harness their unique leadership styles to navigate the transition to higher-level leadership roles. Upon completing the programme, Wong and Hui embarked on a field attachment with the Australian Federal Police Western Command, Western Australia Police Force and Australian Border Force. Through experience sharing, Wong and Hui acquired insights in the policing strategy in crime investigation and public order management.
