This website will carry information about the activities carried out in the institution alongwith relevant links.

The launching of this official website will enhance the accessibility and the visibility of the various capacity building activities undertaken by the Institute.

It is also pertinent to mention that CDTI Chandigarh has been evolving as Centre of Excellence for Organized Crimes and organizing courses on Organized Crimes and providing training to the Police Officers from friendly countries. Since 2018, CDTI Chandigarh has started conducting short duration training programmes for Judicial Officers and Prosecutors also on subjects like Cyber Crimes, Women Safety and Scientific Aids to Investigation, which are much appreciated by stakeholders.

I am confident with the continued efforts of CDTI Chandigarh to continuously improve upon the course contents and make the training course interesting and trainee friendly, the new website would go a long way towards achieving the ultimate goal of imparting quality training to police officers and other stakeholders.
