About

The class included 17 members of ethnic minority groups and 39 women, becoming the first contingent of newly trained officers in Kosovo's new community-based police force. The next step in the programme was 19 weeks of field training.

Founding the Kosovo Police Service was a significant step toward restoring trust and confidence in law enforcement among the citizens of Kosovo. As of spring 2005, nearly 7,000 cadets had received several weeks of basic police training.
