CEPOL is an agency of the European Union dedicated to developing, implementing, and coordinating training for law enforcement officials. We bring together a network of training institutes for law enforcement officials in EU Member States and support them in providing frontline training on security priorities, law enforcement cooperation and information exchange. CEPOL also works with EU bodies, international organisations, and third countries to ensure that the most serious security threats are tackled with a collective response.

CEPOL training and learning activities encourage the development of competencies that are vital for the internal security of the Union, promote the exchange of knowledge and experiences, and support the development of long-lasting professional networks. CEPOL activities provide opportunities to stay up-to-date with the latest European and international developments and trends in the law enforcement field, especially concerning cross-border and serious international crime.

CEPOL employs a multi-layered approach to learning, with different types of training activities and online learning resources complementing one another.
