Summary
"This paper provides an overview of various models of training and research employed in the fields of policing and corrections. Jurisdictions, both within Canada and internationally (i.e., United States, United Kingdom, Ireland, and Australia), were scanned to determine current models of practice. In particular, information was sought about the governance structures of given training models; the timing, approach, and providers of basic/recruit training; and the nature of in-service/advanced training for mid-career professionals. With respect to research models, governance structures were examined, as well as specific areas of research focus, including whether there was any interrelationship between research and training."--Introduction.
