The Field Training and Evaluating Program is an extension
of the law enforcement selection process. It combines
pre-field training with objective evaluations to ensure
that the standards of a competent law enforcement
officer are met. This is a 40 – hour course
designed for experienced uniform patrol officers to
learn the “new job / task” of becoming
a Field Training Officer – FTO. The program
will emphasize the FTO’s role in teaching, training,
coaching and evaluating the recruit officer as they
“earn” the right to wear your department’s
uniform. Each student will receive a Field Training
and Evaluation manual for this course.
