GUYANA Defence Force (GDF) Lieutenant Colonel, Eon Murray, recently completed a 5-day Senior Leadership Programme conducted by the United Kingdom.

The training, which was conducted at the Caribbean Military Academy, Jamaica, targeted senior leaders in the military and police, as well as civil servants, and focused on capacity-building.

“This course is another in a series of training made available by the UK Ministry of Defence to officers of the Guyana Defence Force. They serve not only to strengthen the leadership capacity of the officers who attend but also to build bonds of partnership with the host nation,” the GDF noted.

According to the GDF, it will continue to subscribe to these courses so that ranks are exposed to new knowledge to boost performance at the operational, tactical and strategic levels.
