09 Nov Police and Homeland Security
During the past nine weeks of our course, many of your posts have mentioned the need for more police training, or improved police training.
In this week’s discussion please review the reading assignments and comment on the current state of police training.
Is police training in need of an overhaul, and if so, what needs to be changed? Are there areas of focus that are being overlooked?
Please keep a few facts in mind before you answer.
- -training takes police officers away from their regular duties
- -training is expensive, there are no unlimited training budgets in law enforcement.
