The 15-day camp was held from 2 to 16 September 2020. The training strictly adhered to the standard operating procedures (SOPs) placed by the Ministry of Health.

The training, which involved two officers and 187 Anggota Lain-Lain Pangkat (LLP), aimed to apply the knowledge that had been learnt throughout the year from the local training held during the weekends. Several training and tests were conducted during the camp, including Ujian Jalan Laju 5km, Ujian Kelayakan Kemahiran Individu (UKKI), and hiking programme at Bukit Kepayang, Seremban.
