The Royal Police Force of Antigua and Barbuda has begun a new training cycle with fifty‑three recruits stepping into Course #50.

An opening ceremony at the Sir Wright F. George Police Academy brought together Commissioner Everton Jeffers and senior leaders to welcome the group.

Commissioner Jeffers reminded recruits that policing is a calling built on honour, courage, and integrity. He urged them to wear the uniform with humility and pride while serving every member of the community with fairness and respect.

The event also featured remarks from Deputy Commissioner Louisa Benjamin‑Quashie, guidance from Commandant Superintendent Rodney Ellis, and a prayer from Pastor Kendall Doyle.

Over the next six months, recruits will take part in academic, physical, and practical training to prepare them for professional service. The Force extends best wishes as they begin this important journey.
