The objective of this CLEP event is to improve the vocational skills of customs officers working as dog handlers and detection dogs specialising in cash detection, and to exchange the practical experience in the field of use and training of detection dogs to search for cash. Mutual cooperation of dog handlers and their detection dogs from different Participating Countries and comparison of training methods directly in the training process will contribute to the preparation and training of detection dogs, with the aim to protect financial interests of the EU and the Member States. The workshop will aim at increasing the effectiveness and efficiency of cash controls and maintain dog detection capacities by improving and strengthening their dogs’ performance and dog handlers’ working methods. The workshop will aim at sharing know-how and expertise among the participants during plenary sessions based on a training programme focusing on questions and answers regarding the currently applicable legislation for conducting cash controls, introduction to procedures applied by the hosting country, discussion on training methods and practical issues linked with the search in cash. In addition, participants will take part in on-site training and work with detection dogs in the real environment (international airport) under trainers’ supervision. Participants will also share their own examples of best practices in cash retrieval (including case studies, various interceptions, etc.).
