The Busan Metropolitan City Autonomous Police Committee (Chairperson Kim Cheol-jun) conducted a budget and accounting training session for officers in charge of autonomous police tasks at the Busan Police Training Center on June 23, 2025.
Following the implementation of the autonomous police system, the budgeting of police tasks was shifted from the national government to local authorities, and the committee recognized the need for practical training to resolve confusion among police officers about local budget procedures.
With the aim of improving police officers' understanding of local budgeting and accounting systems, the training was designed to increase the efficiency and transparency of budget execution, thereby providing better public safety services.
●Trainer: Jo Yang-je, President of the Public Contract Research Institute
●Focus Areas:
○Understanding local budget structures and concepts
○Standards for budget preparation and execution
○General expenditure and contract procedures
○Precautions when executing budgets
○Hands-on use of the local accounting system (e.g., e-approval)
●Participants:
○Police officers from Busan Metropolitan Police Agency and various local police stations
○A total of 60 officers involved in budget execution, contract management, and accounting related to autonomous police duties
One participating officer shared:
“When executing local budgets, the system and accounting standards are very different from the national system, which led to many difficulties. This training clarified many of my questions, and it was a very useful session that I can immediately apply to my work.”
Chairperson Kim Cheol-jun stated:
“This training is part of our efforts to reduce confusion in executing local police budgets and lighten the workload for officers in charge of autonomous police tasks. We are committed to continuously strengthening the practical capabilities of the autonomous police and providing effective, citizen-centered safety services.”
