National Survey of Field Training Programs for Police Officers, 1985-1986
Description
This national survey of field training programs for police
officers contains data gathered from state and local criminal justice
agencies regarding the format of their programs, costs of programs,
impact on civil liability suits, and other complaints. Topics covered
include length of time since the implementation of the program, reasons
for initiating the program, objectives of the program, evaluation
criteria and characteristics of the program, and number of dismissals
based on performance in field training programs. Other topics deal with
hours of classroom training, characteristics of field service training
officers, and incentives for pursuing this position. Topics pertaining
to agency evaluation include impact of program on the number of civil
liability complaints, number of successful equal employment opportunity
complaints, presence of alternative training such as with a senior
officer, and additional classroom training during probation when there
is no field training program.
