The Independent Commission Against Corruption of Hong Kong, China (ICAC) organized a four-week Leadership and Executive Development (LED) Programme in November and December 2023, which attracted 31 officers from around the world, 12 of whom came from IAACA member authorities.

Restructured from the former ICAC Chief Investigators' Command Course, the LED Programme, with its enhanced contents, set to strengthen partnership and collaboration among anti-graft and law enforcement agencies worldwide. The programme was also one of the flagship courses of the Hong Kong International Academy Against Corruption.

During the LED Programme, ICAC senior officers illustrated different aspects of the work of the Commission through case studies, its “three-pronged” strategy encompassing law enforcement, prevention and education, as well as investigative skills and application of technology, etc. Participants also visited other law enforcement agencies to deepen their understanding of Hong Kong. Government officials and guest speakers from public organizations and law enforcement agencies spoke at the LED Programme to share with participants their insights into leadership.

The LED Programme featured a six-day study tour to Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China, during which participants gained first-hand knowledge of China's latest development in integrity building, industrial technology and environmental conservation.
