Message from the Commanding Officer Defence Police Training Centre
Welcome to the Defence Police Training Centre (DPTC) web site. I hope you find it useful in discovering information about our Unit, our courses and our broader policing and security profession.
Our mission is to develop and deliver modern, relevant and flexible Service Police training in order to meet the requirements of the ADF, now and in the future.
Since 1993, Lamia Barracks has been the 'Home of the Royal Australian Corps of Military Police' and today, DPTC is its primary tenant, sharing the facility with elements of the 1st Military Police Battalion and the ADF Investigation Service (ADFIS).
DPTC is a truly joint training organisation. It was established in 2003 by CDF Directive. Our staff and students are from all three Services; Army, Navy and the Air Force, and from the Australian Public Service.
We exist to deliver specialist training, education and development to the ADF and its Allies. We seek to provide a supportive and adaptive learning environment that is focused on our learners and aligned to ADF capability requirements. We endeavor to meet the exacting quality standards of an Australian Registered Training Organisation and in doing so are alert to continuous improvement opportunities. We employ competency-based training and assessment (CBTA) and where applicable the competencies awarded on our courses are benchmarked against Australian national standards.
Our facilities are regularly employed by the Australian Federal Police and components of NSW State Police
If you are joining DPTC as staff or as a student there are certain sections within the administration and course pages that you need to read.
