Istanbul Anti-Corruption Action Plan for

Kazakhstan is partially compliant with this recommendation. 
Recommendation 7
Consider devising and implementing corruption-specific joint trainings for law enforcement (Agency), 
prosecutors, judges and other relevant officials. 
Public officials undergo corruption-specific training at advanced training courses of the Academy of 
Public Administration under the President and at Regional Education Centres. There is an intention to 
create an elite national school of administration on the basis of the Academy of Public Administration with 
the participation of foreign partners. 
The primary law enforcement agencies engaged in the investigation of corruption have specialised 
structures and specialised personnel to deal with the detection and investigation of corruption, and there are 
separate in-service training courses for police officers, prosecutors and judges in the sphere of the fight 
against corruption. Besides, joint conferences of law enforcement agencies are organised from time to 
time. However, there is a need the law enforcement staff and prosecutors to be provided uniform training 
on a regular, rolling and permanent basis with regard to detecting and investigating corruption offences and 
to establish specialised training for those directly involved in the fight against corruption. Such training 
should be included in the curriculum of newly recruited staff as well as be part of in-service training.
According to the information received no joint training courses are conducted and curriculum for such 
training is not designed.
Kazakhstan is non compliant with this recommendation.
