AI courses now must for IPS officers as Centre links iGOT courses to appraisal
The Union Ministry of Home Affairs has announced that Indian Police Service (IPS) officers must now complete mandatory courses on emerging technologies, evidence-based policymaking, cybersecurity fundamentals, and other relevant subjects as part of their annual performance appraisal reports (APARs). This decision, following a Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) directive, aims to ensure continuous, role-specific capacity building for officers of the All India Services.
The iGOT Karmayogi platform, a digital learning and capacity-building portal, will host the prescribed courses for civil servants and government employees.
