When an officer leaves the school he gets constant instruction in duty time. After 13 months of service he will go on a 10-week course at the Police Training Contingent, Fanling, where the emphasis is on riot control.
Before the end of two years' service, and again near the end of three years, all Proba- tionary Inspectors return to the Training School for further fortnightly courses.
