Abstract: Investing in human resources has become one of the most effective actions for an organization in reply to current massive challenges we face on a daily basis. The value of continuous professional development for all employees is nowadays generally acknowledged and it bears no denial. An organization’s mission and its specific targets, as they have been set out, can only be accomplished if personnel members do hold necessary theoretical and practical skills for a high-standard execution of their work-related tasks. Since it is a specialized state institution, with a focus on maintaining public order and safety, Romanian Police has made continuous professional training a permanent priority for its employees in order to sustain a superior standard for all services. Although rules and regulations are extremely clear, we believe that a definitive outline of organisational-levelled continuous training for policemen can provide a series of useful pieces of information for future references in which concerns training plans. A 2014 study on this matter has pointed out both favorable and cumbersome aspects of the process of continuous professional training of Romanian policemen. The results of our investigation can be deemed as significant both in terms of the extension of research for organisational schemes and for the activity of structuring a series of training programmes with multiple gains for this professional category.
