Are you interested in sharing your expertise and experience of police work with fellow officers? If so the Police College wants to hear from you for a recruitment exercise for the Peer Adviser Scheme (PAS), which forms an integral part of the Force's Knowledge Management (KM) System.

A Peer Adviser for Public Order Policing since 2007, Superintendent Anders Tan, has this to say about his secondary duty: "It's a very rewarding experience to share my operational experience through the PAS. During this process I learned a lot of things from fellow officers."

A Peer Adviser is required to make his or her contact point known on the PAS website and to participate in knowledge-sharing activities from time to time. Last year, Peer Advisers also assisted the KM Champion, Acting Senior Superintendent (SSP) Eric Cheng Tak-ming, in organising "Knowledge Cafes" on anti-pickpocketing operations, public order events management, and interdicting illicit debt collection activities. All these sharing sessions were well received by the participants. Newly recruited Peer Advisers will be provided with induction and local KM training.

Under the PAS, there are currently 58 Peer Advisers appointed for six domains covering 19 subjects. Police College is planning to expand the domains by recruiting more police experts for KM development activities. Anyone with any police specialty, particularly those related to frontline work such as policing public order events, IT-related crime or Non-ethnic Chinese policing, are welcome to send applications to the Research Centre of Police College before April 30.

For more information about the Peer Adviser recruitment, see the K-Life website via POINT > POWER > K-life, or contact Chief Inspector Tony Lam on 2860-4148 (PEN: cip-rc) or Acting SSP Cheng on 2860-6268 for PAS activities.
