18. Law enforcement personnel at all levels, prosecutors and the judiciary must be trained and equipped to address high-tech crimes. Cybercrime training should be harmonised and accredited by academic and/or professional bodies on a national and international level Aims, objectives and learning outcomes for each level of training should be agreed internationally Cybercrime training organisations should work together to develop training products, share trainers and training material to avoid duplication of effort. Countries with cybercrime training institutes should engage in coordinated outreach activity to deliver cybercrime training to other countries. Conclusions
