Blackstone's Preparing for Police Duty

Blackstone's Preparing for Police Duty

by Fraser Sampson LLB LLM MBA (Author)

Synopsis

This new book provides a highly readable, practical overview of the structure, concepts and workings of the police force in England & Wales. It offers a comprehensive foundation to the basic concepts that new recruits will encounter during their initial training periods and in the workplace, as well as highlighting some key issues and theories that will be built upon in later training. It will be a significant tool in helping them prepare for forthcoming training - allowing each recruit to start assuming some responsibility for his/her own professional development from an early stage. Written in a concise and approachable style, the book will also be a useful guide to anyone considering a career in the police force or interview candidates wishing to prepare themselves for interview.

Media Reviews
Having conducted a major thematic inspection of police probationer training in 2001, and produced the report Training Matters... I know how important it is to make learning accessible, easy to understand, and attractive.
