1,200 new police recruits to undergo training
September 30, 2014 | 3:26pm
MANILA, Philippines - Some 1,200 new police recruits on Tuesday took their oath at the National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO) in Taguig City.
NCRPO head Director Carmelo Valmoria administered the oath to the 1,020 male and 180 female recruits as he encouraged them to uphold the high standards of integrity.
"Take this chance to serve the public better and make the NCRPO proud," Valmoria told the recruits at the ceremony at the NCRPO headquarters at Camp Bagong Diwa.
Based on the NCRPO records, the 1,200 recruits were chosen from the 7,360 applicants during the selection process since January this year.
The new recruits are part of the first batch of 9,200 police officers quota for the calendar year 2014 to fill up the inadequate numbers of police officers in Metro Manila.
The oath taking serves as their entrance to undergo the Public Safety Field Training Program for a year wherein they must endure the painstaking physical conditioning to develop their efficiency and to instill discipline and camaraderie within them.
They will also be trained on series of academic training such as Police Operational Procedure and Basic Law; and non-academic such as self-defense, handgun proficiency and others that will enhance their competence, and institute their proficiency in the field of investigation, patrol and traffic management.
Their performance rating within the training will be their requisite to get their permanent status in the Philippine National Police.
Meanwhile, the NCRPO is still on the process of accepting and selecting qualified police applicants for the next batch.
