The goal of "Smart Training" is to use innovative technology to enhance professionalism and efficiency of training in the HKCSA and to cultivate knowledge-based correctional officers by promoting a self-learning culture for the sustainable development of correctional work.

The HKCSA has designed a three-tier Teaching and Learning Framework. Tier 1 is “Interactive Classroom Training”, which converts traditional classrooms into e-classrooms to enhance interactive teaching. These include the addition of innovative classroom design and facility settings, which can help enhance new recruit trainees' sense of engagement and facilitate communication between each other. The e-classrooms are equipped with multi-function collaboration systems that can efficiently display, record and distribute various types of multimedia materials to trainees.

Tier 2 is “Bridging Scenario Training”, which allows trainees to apply knowledge and skills they have learnt during lessons through Virtual Reality (VR) training. In addition to the existing Virtual Reality Training Facilities and large-scale LED Wall in gymnasiums, the HKCSA has also provided cinema screens in two e-classrooms to create an “e-theatre”, an intense virtual environment, to enhance the training effect.

Moreover, the HKCSA has developed the “AI Chinese-style Foot Drill Self-Learning System” (The System) which uses Artificial Intelligence to analyse trainees' Chinese-style foot drill movements in order to effectively help them to master the skill sets. The system recorded the demonstration by the Guard of Honour of the Hong Kong Garrison of the People’s Liberation Army as the standard movements for learning. The System also collects a wide range of data of the trainees, such as the response time to commands, the pace and the angles of body movements, etc. for analysis and evaluation by artificial intelligence.
