as a FTO you should be treating the Rookie as if they are a baby (not literally), they know nothing you must teach them, guide them. pretty much a parent raising their child.

John_Noris :
The flip side to that is; Rookies should not be training rookies, even if they're good at teaching. What's someone with no time on the job going to teach a new officer? An FTO should be a well balanced officer. This is probably the most critical position in a department.

In my old agency the FTO’s were paid extra. An officer had to apply to be an FTO and if selected had to go to FTO training.

I 💯 should not be an FTO. I don’t have the patience nor can I avoid puking in the passenger seat 😂

But also as an FTO your dept should hear your concerns and act on your suggestions not just pass people thru because you need numbers!

Amen!! I hated watching some trainees get bullied and belittled! That’s not how you train/teach someone.

as for someone with time on who's been forced to train rookies, I agree! I'm not built to hold a rookies hand through everything and teaching him the ways. Admin will be admin.
