Abstract

IT REPRESENTS A RESPONSE TO REQUESTS BY LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES AND EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS TO ADVISE AND AID IN THE PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT OF TRAINING PROGRAMS FOR EMPLOYEES AND PROSPECTIVE CANDIDATES FOR THIS IMPORTANT BRANCH OF THE PUBLIC SERVICE. IT SUGGESTS WAYS AND MEANS BY WHICH OFFICERS AND PROSPECTIVE OFFICERS MAY BE TRAINED AND DESCRIBES THE FUNDAMENTALS OF VOCATIONAL EDUCATION FOR THE LAW ENFORCEMENT SERVICE. IT IS BELIEVED THAT THESE PRINCIPLES CAN BE ADAPTED TO MEET THE CONDITIONS OF LOCAL TRAINING NEEDS. IT INDICATES THE GREAT VARIETY OF WORK THE LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER IS REQUIRED TO DO, DESCRIBES THE MANNER IN WHICH TRAINING PROGRAMS FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS MAY BE OPERATED, AND EXPLAINS HOW AID AND ASSISTANCE MAY BE OBTAINED FROM STATE BOARDS FOR VOCATIONAL EDUCATION. THIS MANUAL IS NOT A TEXTBOOK ON LAW ENFORCEMENT WORK. IT IS NOT A GUIDE TO TEACHING, AND IT DOES NOT POINT OUT THE MECHANICS OF TRAINING PEOPLE.
