techniques. Furthermore, from 6-8 May, the Mission organized three one-day seminars on this topic for 60 police officers from all police operational regions, which were delivered by the trainers trained by the Mission a week before. From 10-13 June, the Mission delivered a training-of-trainers course on workplace assessment and evaluation for eight Kosovo Police officers at the premises of the Kosovo Academy for Public Safety. Following the basic training provided to them last year, the aim of this activity was to further build on the trainers’ capacity in the area of assessment of personnel in the workplace environment. As a result, the participants gained new knowledge and skills on how to organize and conduct training sessions on workplace assessment, formative and summative assessment, principles of assessment and planning, assessment rubrics and methods of gathering data. From 4-8 August, the Mission conducted an in-house training of trainers in curriculum design for ten police trainers, in order to assist the Kosovo Police in establishing a sustainable system on this subject matter. The purpose of this practical course was to enhance the capacities of these trainers in developing effective curricula to support their respective training programmes. The course mainly covered an analysis of the training needs and the organizational performance, as well as development of training content, lesson plans, training aids and hand-outs. A five-day advanced training course for ten members of the Kosovo Police Close Protection Unit on the transfer of arrested and wanted persons was delivered by the Mission from 18-22 August at a police base in Lipjan/Lipljan. The training, which was organized and developed as a follow-up to a basic course delivered in November last year, focused on the transfer of high-risk prisoners to and from Kosovo and included practical exercises and simulations. The main goal of this training was to build up the know-how within Kosovo Police, as these trainees will be tasked to deliver the same training to other officers who will be assigned to this unit in the future. The course curricula included the legal basis for transfer of arrested persons; vehicle, bus and airplane transfer operations; security measures; and techniques and methods of defensive and offensive tactics prior, during and after the transfer. On 17 September, the Mission, supported by the Kosovo Police Training Division, organized a training session on digital photography for 20 Kosovo Police officers from the four northern municipalities. In addition, the Mission donated ten digital cameras to Kosovo Police officers to respond to crime and traffic accident scenes properly equipped. Through theoretical and practical sessions, the training aimed at improving the operational and investigative capabilities of police officers to effectively fight crime. Twenty trainers and supervisors of the Kosovo Police Special Operations Unit received a five-day training course on ‘understanding group dynamics and mass psychology and managing conflicts through negotiation skills’, conducted by the Mission from 22-26 September. The training mainly taught the participants to identify group dynamics and mass psychology while dealing with crowds and controlling riots; define social movements; distinguish between crowd and group structures of demonstrations; categorize individual types of demonstrations and tactics used by demonstrators to achieve their goals; and know general rules for how to go into a conversation/negotiation with these groups. From 13-17 October, 16 Kosovo Police crime scene investigators attended a five-day training on shooting incident reconstruction delivered by the Mission at the Kosovo Academy for Public Safety premises. The purpose of this training was to enhance the crime scene experts’ skills on forensic investigations of shooting incidents. From 15-17 October, the Mission enabled two representatives of the Agency for Emergency Management to attend the regional fire management training in Antalya, Turkey, which was organized by the OSCE in close co-operation with the Government of Turkey and the Global 75
