The completed training is known as the 1st Qualification course, and it trained the police candidates in tactics, police work, and dealing with the public.
The average age of the Police graduates has been higher with this class, mostly because many of them were in other occupations, when they for different reasons decided to apply to become police officers in the new age, after the fall of Saddam.
These officers are all highly motivated, and they were one of the most spirited classes of police candidates to go through the training. The average age is 29 , and the candidates range in age from 21 years to 57 years of age.
Forty four percent of the new police officers are from Maysan and Basrah.
