King Fahd Security College implements the 12 km long walk project
King Fahd Security College conducted its annual "Long March," a 12-kilometer walk within the college campus, as part of its ongoing training programs aimed at enhancing the physical and mental fitness of its personnel. The Acting Director General of the College, Major General Dr. Fahd bin Nasser Al-Watban, led the participants, along with a large number of military personnel and students, in a display of discipline and high morale.
This project is a key component of the college's annual training program, primarily aimed at boosting the self-confidence of its personnel and enhancing the physical fitness and training levels of officers, enlisted personnel, and students alike. Through these field activities, the college seeks to cultivate in future security personnel the ability to endure hardship, adapt to diverse climatic and field conditions, and be fully prepared to handle security emergencies with competence.
The importance of physical fitness in security work
Physical fitness is a cornerstone of a successful security officer, and the Ministry of Interior, through its training sectors, most notably the King Fahd Security College, places great emphasis on physical conditioning. The long march project is not limited to physical development; it also serves as psychological and mental training, enhancing endurance and patience, and reinforcing the concepts of teamwork and a unified spirit between leaders and subordinates. This was clearly demonstrated by the college director's participation with the students in this march.
King Fahd Security College: A leading security institution
King Fahd Security College is one of the most prominent security educational institutions in the region, tasked with preparing and qualifying university graduates and high school graduates to work in various security sectors. The college's curriculum combines theoretical academic studies with rigorous field training to ensure the graduation of qualified security personnel equipped with the necessary skills to meet rapidly evolving security challenges and protect the nation's resources and achievements.
Expected impact of training programs
The continued implementation of such training projects reflects the college's commitment to applying the highest quality standards in military training. These activities contribute to raising the combat and security readiness of graduates, which positively impacts the performance of security sectors in the field. Military experts emphasize that long-distance marching programs are a true test of the forces' readiness, mobility, and ability to operate under pressure, which ultimately serves national security and societal stability.
