About FTO Or PTO?: The San Jose Model (SJM): Correcting
Product Description An in-depth comparative analysis of the two most prominent field (on-the-job) training programs for post-academy law enforcement, corrections, detention, dispatch and other relevant criminal justice discipline new hires (recruits/trainees). This heavily researched, definitive work on the San Jose Model Field Training and Evaluation (FTO/FTEP) Program vs. the Police Training Officer (PTO) Program, investigates program myths, differences, benefits, and results, by a protégé of a founding father (Glenn Kaminsky) of the former and past colleague of a developer (Jerry Hoover) of the latter. 100% of all profits from the sale of this book will be donated to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund. Review "Lisa Konrath, who was one of my training officers, is an internationally respected authority in law enforcement education over four decades. She has provided us a fair, unbiased rigorous dissection and comparative analysis of post academy training for all criminal justice positions. This book should be required reading for all law enforcement training officers, commanders and state and federal law enforcement certifying organizations." ~ Richard Carmona, MD,MPH,FACS Deputy Sheriff and Special Advisor to The Sheriff 17th Surgeon General of The United States "Having been in Law Enforcement for more than 38 years, with over 35 of those years directly involved in the Field Training Officer Program, Lisa Konrath's book, FTO or PTO? does an excellent job of comparing the San Jose Model FTO Program with the Reno Model PTO program identifying the pros and cons. Agency's looking at their current recruit officer training program will find this publication immensely helpful especially with the side by side comparison. Law Enforcement Executives now have an instrument that they can fairly and objectively use to properly evaluate their training program for their agency." ~ Division Chief, Robert Sullenberger About the Author Lisa Konrath's training recipients include members of over 50 countries, 8 United States federal government agencies, government entities in all 50 states in the U.S., the American Society of Law Enforcement Trainers (ASLET), and 4 universities. In addition to developing, administering and advising on FTO programs since 1984, the author is a past president of NAFTO (National Association of Field Training Officers), past second vice-president of IPA (International Police Association) Region 31, served two terms on the Executive Board of ASLET, and has a Masters in Adult and Continuing Education and a B.A. in Management.
