An average of 350 officers undergo 15-day training every month, with eight officers from each district participating. The 173rd batch of the training program is scheduled to begin on September 2. ATS, once a preferred training hub for officers from Nepal, Bhutan, Sri Lanka, South Africa, and other countries, has developed a comprehensive training module under the guidance of CID ADG Parasnath.

The training also includes ethics, discipline, FIR and Zero FIR procedures, preliminary investigations, handling disputed facts, witness statements, confessions, human and property crime investigations, arrest procedures, key police orders and court rulings, crime scene photography, e-evidence, CCTNS, and the confiscation of criminal assets.
