Training on mental-ill health is integrated throughout the initial police learning programme which all new recruits must complete. The College of Policing sets the standards for training and professional development for police forces in England and Wales.

The College refreshed its Authorised Professional Practice and accompanying training modules on mental health in 2016. It is the responsibility of Chief Constables and Police and Crime Commissioners, to ensure officers and police staff receive appropri-ate training and that they have regard to the Authorised Professional Practice when discharging their responsibilities.

Several police forces have, in addition, developed their own mental health training modules in conjunction with local mental health partners
