The Ministry of Home Affairs in Namibia is enhancing police cadet training through a nationwide career fair series.
This week, the Ministry is concluding its participation in the NAMPOL Career Fair at the Ruben Danger Ashipala Police Training Centre in Ondangwa, running from 23 to 27 February 2026. This event marks the end of a series that began on 9 February 2026, aimed at equipping hundreds of cadets with vital knowledge on civil registration, immigration services, and customer care standards.
Final Leg of NAMPOL Career Fair Series
The NAMPOL Career Fair series has traveled across Namibia, starting in Gobabis and moving through Katima Mulilo. At each location, police cadets received comprehensive information on civil registration services, immigration services, customer care standards, and the Customer Service Charter.
This initiative is designed to enhance professionalism and service excellence among future police officers, ensuring they are well-prepared for public interactions.
Key Training Initiatives for Police Cadets
Earlier this month, the Ministry launched a five-day intensive training program at the Pius Joseph Kaundu Training Centre in the Omaheke Region. A total of 674 cadets are benefiting from this initiative, which focuses on strengthening service delivery and fostering a people-centered police force.
The program emphasizes the importance of professionalism, integrity, and empathy in law enforcement, aligning with the Ministry’s commitment to public service.
Next Steps for Police Cadet Training
- Completion of the NAMPOL Career Fair series.
- Continued focus on enhancing police cadet training programs.
- Implementation of customer care standards in police training.
This initiative is a significant step towards building a more professional and accountable police force in Namibia.
