This 32-hour Certification Course is the next evolution in Field Training. Participants will be introduced to the human-performance-based C.T.E. (Coach, Train, then Evaluate) Model© developed by Command Presence Training. This is not the San Jose or PTO model; it’s entirely new. This course emphasizes how FTOs train, not just how to evaluate. It has entirely new performance criteria based on 21st-century policing. When applied properly, the C.T.E. model increases recruit performance, reduces washout rate, and reduces FTO burnout. It’s time to think differently about FTO training; this is your opportunity to be part of the long-overdue change.
Through guided discussion, case study, and video analysis, participants will explore the following:
The Science of how people learn
Communication strategies and generational leadership
Applying the C.T.E. Model© - Definitions, timelines, and best practices
The FTO as Coach, Leader, Tactician, and Evaluator
Conducting effective feedback sessions through the Socratic approach
Essential evaluation categories and FTO software systems
Appropriate audience:
Current or prospective FTO’s, FTO Program Supervisors, and Training Unit Managers
Course length:
32 hours
