Description
This manual provides trainees in both public and private patrol agencies with instruction in the latest patrol methodologies and strategies. The manual intentionally incorporates elements derived from the Community-Oriented Policing, Police Training Officer, Problem-Oriented Policing, and the new Crime Free models. The deliberate combination of both public and private sector audiences is set forth in order to support a heightened cooperation among public and private agencies as well as a stronger overall delivery outcome. The manual covers elements of officer and agency professionalism and ethics in patrol services and offers extensive information on the celebrated California Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST) training modules. The book is intrinsically imbued with a significant emphasis on developing critical and reflective practices that can strengthen individual capability while encouraging positive change and supporting community well-being.
