An evolving training program

The 2026 edition incorporated new content related to technical training and practical exercises. These included a gender perspective, mobility with a focus on care-centered equality, mindful leadership, and the prevention of physical and psychosocial risks.

The practical training included exercises on safe traffic control during traffic incidents, coordination with emergency services, and the protection of pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcyclists on high-speed roads.

Training to Respond to Traffic Accidents

Police officers and first responders respond directly to traffic accidents. Their training is essential for acting safely and in a coordinated manner from the very first moments of the response and for protecting road users.

As part of their training, participants received a DC-3 certificate recognized by the Ministry of Labor and Social Welfare (STPS), which attests to the skills acquired during the training.

Since its creation in 2023, the program has surpassed 1,900 participants and 12,000 hours of training, solidifying an initiative that strengthens the capabilities of the institutions responsible for road safety.

With these results, the training sessions have established themselves as a specialized training initiative that strengthens the capabilities of first responders and contributes to safer mobility.
