THE Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government attaches great importance to national studies training for civil servants, and strives to enhance civil servants' understanding on the constitutional order of the HKSAR (including the Constitution, the Basic Law and the National Security Law).
Training for new recruits

The Civil Service College (CSC) of the Civil Service Bureau has updated the induction training provided to the new recruits. The enhanced programme covers the concept and historical background of “One Country, Two Systems”, the systems of our country and the HKSAR, the relationship between the Constitution and the Basic Law, the National Security Law and the principle of “patriots administering Hong Kong”. The programme is conducted in a diversified and interactive fashion, such as videos, discussions, Q&A sessions and case studies, so that new recruits can actively take part in them. Most of the participants thought that the programme gave them a better understanding on the relevant topics and enabled them to comprehend the relationship between the Basic Law and the discharge of public duties.

The speaker used technologies to instantly answer questions raised by the participants and discuss the subject matter with them.
