Bahrain: Royal Academy of Police Participates in AI Training Programme

In line with directives by the Ministry of Interior and the Ministerial Committee for Information Technology and Communication (MCICT), the Information & eGovernment Authority (iGA) discussed collaboration with the Royal Academy of Police to advance artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities within the public security sector.

This collaboration aims to establish an integrated framework for the development of innovative solutions and the delivery of specialised training for Ministry of Interior members aimed at enhancing technical proficiency and operational effectiveness. 

The discussions focused on the adoption of AI technologies, which are rapidly evolving across the world, and which have the potential to enhance performance and introduce even more innovation.  Both parties explored the design of targeted training programs for Ministry of Interior team members across all levels and specialities, to strengthen their technical and practical AI abilities.  The aim is to ensure the effective and sustainable use of these advanced technologies.

Further discussions addressed the importance of strengthening bilateral coordination and promoting continuous learning by leveraging the iGA’s innovative solutions and success in digital transformation.  These efforts aim to support the adoption of advanced digital tools that meet the evolving needs of security operations and contribute to building a leading national model in this vital domain.

The collaboration also envisions the use of the Royal Academy of Police facilities to host specialised workshops, training programmes, and seminars.  This would foster an interactive educational environment that facilitates knowledge transfer and enhances the preparedness of security personnel.
