Whether you are teaching a class of cadets, field training a rookie, delivering a civic speech, serving as an SRO, or conducting roll-call training, this book is for you. Society has placed the highest expectations possible on the law enforcement trainer - Police Instructor will help you exceed them!
I highly recommend Richard's book as a resource for instructors - it should be placed within easy reach and opened often. It is not a read once and put away resource. ~Jim Fraser, California POST Master Instructor Development Program, Fraser and Associates, Inc.
Your book should be part of any instructor techniques course... whether on the academy level, in-service, or for those of us that travel around the country involved in law enforcement training. ~Robert Alfonso, Globus TraCon LLC, Captain (ret.) Pinellas County Sheriff's Office, Florida
Regardless of the topic you teach there is something in this book that will assist you in creating an active learning environment for your officers. ~Brian Willis, ILEETA Deputy Executive Director, Winning Mind Training Inc., Canada
Police Instructor is a fantastic resource for academy instructors. ~Mark Elm, New South Wales Police Academy, Australia
The Disclaimer
I believe whole-heartedly that our profession will benefit from the new methods and innovative ideas provided in Police Instructor – I am confident of that – but I would not insult you or any other instructor by saying I know your audience better than you do. No one can assure you that a certain activity or technique will work every time. If someone says otherwise, they are selling you a bottle of snake oil. If a particular method does not work for you – stop using it or change it for your class.
I wrote this book for law enforcers who train law enforcers, and I am not interested in being politically correct. If you are not a law enforcer, police instructor, or someone with a real connection to the world of law enforcement, this book may offend you. It is deeply opinionated, painfully honest, and personal. If you do not like hearing the truth, this book may not be for you - I recommend you go with fiction.
I have included examples of how I do things behind the scenes and in the classroom; however, like the making of hotdogs, not everyone wants to see how it’s done. You probably will not like and use every one of the suggestions, but you will find many of them compelling if you train cops or cadets.
I believe the recent publishing of POLICE INSTRUCTOR is as important for the law enforcement training community as the publishing of the Street Survival manual in the 80's was for officer safety. ~Randy, Wildlife Officer & LEO Trainer, Ohio
Police Instructor adopts the approach of bringing the street into the classroom. ~James P. Gaffney, MPA, Police Executive and Adjunct Professor, New York
