Conclusions

• Law enforcement personnel at all levels,
  prosecutors and the judiciary must be trained and
  equipped to address high-tech crimes.
• Cybercrime training should be harmonised and
  accredited by academic and/or professional bodies
  on a national and international level
• Aims, objectives and learning outcomes for each
  level of training should be agreed
  internationally
• Cybercrime training organisations should work
  together to develop training products, share
  trainers and training material to avoid
  duplication of effort.
• Countries with cybercrime training institutes
  should engage in coordinated outreach activity to
  deliver cybercrime training to other countries.
