Traffic officers go back to school
Chief Executive Officer of the RTMC, Advocate Makhosini Msibi, said the training was an effort to build a new cadre of a traffic officers schooled in the highest form of ethical conduct.
Msibi said the traffic officers will continue to receive on-the-job training to ensure improvements in the quality of traffic officers who are deployed on South Africa's roads.
The officers began the four-month training, in Heidelberg, this week as part of the RTMC's capacity building programme.
"The up-skilling programme will seek to impact critical skills such as the examination of vehicles, the law, advanced driving, firearm handling and communications amongst others," RTMC said.
The training will lay the foundation for the professionalisation of the traffic police service and the introduction of the 21st century curriculum.
The RTMC has developed norms and standards for the traffic fraternity and is currently working with institutions of higher education to introduce a new occupational qualification for traffic officers.
