Criminal enterprises are growing in sophistication. Terrorism is
an ongoing security threat. The general public is more
knowledgeable about legal matters. These developments, among
others, necessitate new methods in police work--and in training new
recruits and in-service officers. Given these challenges,
improvements in training are a vital means of both staying ahead of
lawbreakers and delivering the most effective services to the
community.
"Police Organization and Training" surveys innovations in law
enforcement training in its evolution from military-style models
toward continuing professional development, improved investigation
methods, and overall best practices. International dispatches by
training practitioners, academics, and other experts from the US,
the UK, Canada, Germany, Hong Kong, and elsewhere emphasize blended
education methods, competency-building curricula, program and
policy development, and leadership concepts. These emerging
paradigms and technologies, coupled with a clear focus on ethical
issues, provide a lucid picture of the future of police training in
both educational and law enforcement contexts. In addition, the
book's training templates are not only instructive but also
adaptable to different locales. Featured in the coverage:
Simulation technology as a training tool, the Investigation Skill
Education Program and the Professionalizing Investigation Program,
redesigning specialized advanced criminal investigation and
training, a situation-oriented approach to addressing potentially
dangerous situations, developments in United Nations peacekeeping
training and combating modern piracy
"Police Organization and Training "is a key resource for
researcher sand policymakers in comparative criminal justice,
police and public administration, and police training academies. It
also has considerable utility as a classroom text in courses on
policing and police administration.
Includes a forward by Ronald K Noble, Secretary General of
INTERPOL. "
