Milosevic thanked the Government of the Netherlands for the assistance provided and he expressed hope that the donation will help Serbia’s police bring its curricula into line with those in developed European countries.
The equipment, worth €20,000, is part of a donation by the Dutch Government to the Ministry of Interior for the OSCE Curriculum Design Project.
The entire donation to the Law Enforcement Department amounts to €250,000 and will help raise human rights standards and increase the level of professionalism within the police service.
At the same event today, 32 police officers from all over Serbia were certified as National Trainers, and eight officers from Serbia and Montenegro as National Curriculum Designers.
This is the first group of officers to graduate from a three-week Curriculum Design Course during which they learned to assess training needs, develop training plans and evaluate existing education curricula.
The graduates will play an important role in designing and developing new national training curricula for the Serbian and the Montenegrin police services.
Dutch Ambassador to Serbia-Montenegro Baren van der Heijden said education reform is a key to success in policing reform, adding that Serbia’s police have come a long way and are now “part of the world” once again.
The event was also attended by Deputy Head of OSCE Mission Mark Davison, Head of OSCE Mission’s Law Enforcement Department Roger Berg, and Tanja Tripovic of the Police School in Danilovgrad, the Beta news agency reported.
