The leadership of units, academies, and police schools must facilitate officers and soldiers in their training. Specifically:

- The leadership of units is responsible for directing and facilitating favorable conditions regarding time, facilities, and grounds for officers and soldiers to participate in physical exercise and training according to the standards.- Police academies and schools must integrate the content of physical training according to the standards into the curriculum of physical education subjects for students.- Units with concentrated accommodation should combine standard physical training with routine training to enhance the physical, technical, tactical capabilities, and fighting spirit of officers and soldiers within the unit.

Circular 24 stipulates that the examination of physical fitness training according to the standards is to be organized annually and can be divided into multiple sessions so that all officers and soldiers can participate in the examination. The examination time is determined by the head of the unit.

The heads of units specified in Clause 1, Article 10, based on the examination results and the recommendations of the Chief Examiner, are to make decisions recognizing the attainment of physical fitness standards for officers, soldiers, and affiliated units. Examination results are to be reported to the Ministry (through the Department of Political Work) to compile and serve the annual commendation work.
