The PMP  is currently open to undergraduates of the following local tertiary institutes:

•  The University of Hong Kong

The PMP Mentors are a cadre of volunteer officers from SIP to SSP ranks who are graduates of the local universities. They are led by CSP CHUNG Hung-fung, Harry as Head Mentor. The Mentors act as a role model with each leading two to four Mentees from their respective parent universities and share with them knowledge, experience and challenges in the career of a Police Inspector.  

Starting from PMP 2008/09, junior inspectorate officers, who have been PMP Mentees before joining the Force, are appointed as Assistant Mentors to strengthen the Programme.

Since its inception in 2004, 857 mentees have participated in the Programme. As at June 2011, 696 mentees have applied to join the Force and 72 of them are recruited as Inspectors and 9 as Police Constables.
