In September 2023, the CS Commissioner, Stephen Pokanis, provided an update in response to public inquiries regarding the progress of the 2023/2024 recruitment initiative.

100 Candidates out of 5000 Applicants Considered

The Commissioner anticipates completing this exercise within the current month, with training scheduled to commence in November 2023 and into 2024. Out of 5,000 applications, 400 candidates have been selected. However, the CS will only be recruiting 100 candidates. This strategic decision is aimed at cost-cutting and effective fund management for recruitment training.

For this recruitment cycle, a budget of K2 million kina has been allocated. This funding covers various aspects such as training expenses, uniforms, training materials, allowances, movement after training to institutions, and the 12-month probationary period (On-Workplace Assessments).


Extensive 5-month Training Program

Prospective CS recruits will undergo an extensive 5-month training program, followed by a 12-month probationary period before certification as warders. Throughout this period, recruits will be subject to assessments determining the extension of probation or termination. 

The meticulous approach ensures the selection and preparation of competent individuals for the responsibilities associated with the Correctional Services.


Delay in CIS Recruitment Selection List and Training for 2024

As of the latest update (Check Here), the Correctional Service (CIS) recruitment selection list for training in 2024 has not been released. A recent statement from the CIS authorities reveals that the training process has been temporarily put on hold. The primary reason cited for this delay is a lack of funding.

The CIS acknowledges the importance of ensuring adequate resources for the training of selected candidates, and the decision to postpone the training reflects a commitment to maintaining the quality and effectiveness of the program. The CIS is actively working to secure the necessary funding to resume the training process promptly.

Applicants and stakeholders are advised to stay tuned for further announcements regarding the release of the recruitment selection list and the resumption of training activities for the 2024 intake. The CIS remains dedicated to transparency and efficiency in its recruitment and training processes, intending to foster a capable and skilled workforce for the Correctional Service.
