The NATO MP COE was officially appointed as the Department Head (DH) for Military Policing Education and Training (E&T) discipline within NATO on 2 December 2015. “Discipline” is a NATO-approved sphere of knowledge and skills which supports existing and evolving capabilities. The list of disciplines is developed by the NATO HQ Supreme Allied Command Transformation (SACT) to focus education and training efforts on achieving NATO operational requirements in the respective fields.  
on October 2020
The Centre, as the DH supports the HQ SACT’s responsibility for translating NATO E&T requirements into solutions for individual and collective training. In other words, the Military Policing (MPG) DH coordinates existing courses and other educational solutions or supports creation of the new ones in order to meet NATO requirements.  At the same time, the NATO MP COE is looking for collective training and exercise opportunities in order to ensure that MP personnel, working for NATO could exercise their skills and functions. 
Moreover, the NATO MP COE is accountable for conducting the Annual Discipline Conference (ADC), i.e. a multinational forum of different E&T facilities, providing training for MP within NATO. This year’s iteration will be delivered in online mode.
The aim of the Military Policing Annual Discipline Conference 2020 (MPGADC20) is to annually review and update the NATO Education and Individual Training (E&IT) requirements in the MPG discipline and to validate or revise education and training (E&T) solutions.

• Representatives of national and (inter)national organizations interested in contribution to training solutions for the NATO MP COI;

The NATO MP COE is looking for a wide spectrum of event participants.
