The program includes academic sessions, meetings and site visits in Washington, DC and Northern Virginia.

The CIED is a part of Georgetown University designed for executive education and technical training programs such as business, law and diplomacy, public administration and public policy since 1981. The Center serves people and organizations all over the world. Georgetown University faculty and academic departments, as well as outside policymakers, practitioners, partner institutions and talented alumni bring the specific knowledge needed for each short and long- term program of the CIED.

At the end of the program there will be an awards ceremony on Georgetown University’s main campus.

TIPS

The Turkish Institute for Police Studies (TIPS) has been functionally housed at the University of North Texas for over six years. The aim of TIPS is to combine the practical experience of the Turkish National Police in policing areas (especially terrorism, organized crime, narcotics, administration, intelligence, and investigation) with the academic and theoretical foundation represented by masters and doctoral education in the United State universities. Its ultimate goal is to explore new practical and functional approaches to the global crime problem by using its members’ extensive experience throughout their academic journey as professionals.
