The Directorate of Criminal Investigations is set to benefit after Canada offered sponsorship to 20 officers for Crime Research and Intelligence Bureau training.
The course is facilitated by experts from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
In a statement on Monday, DCI said the move will help in the fight against terrorism.
"Through its embassy in Kenya, the Canadian government has sponsored 20 DCI Crime Research and Intelligence Bureau detectives for intensive training on Operational Intelligence, days after another class graduated with a similar training courtesy of the Embassy," she said.
Also incorporated in the training are several officers from the Directorate of Public Prosecution who will gain knowledge on prosecuting terrorism cases.
The DCI director Amin Mohamed acknowledged the expertise showcased by the officers who have previously undertaken similar training, noting that meticulous intelligence analysis had seen many complex cases solved.
In his remarks delivered by the Director Planning Baraza Walumoli, AIG, DCI boss thanked the Canadian Government, given the high cost of training a single class on the coveted course.
Walumoli noted that terrorism and violent extremism were a global problem that required concerted efforts to curtail.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police Liaison Officer Magdala Turpin expressed her government's commitment to continue partnering with Kenyan security teams in boosting capacity for operational intelligence.
She further urged the trainees to draw best practices from their facilitators.
The ATA Program manager Mike Solis pointed out that the US Government through its embassy in Nairobi had committed to, not only equipping and building capacity for counter terrorism in Kenya but was also partnering in intelligence gathering and sharing.
