Law enforcement training has evolved over time.  Discuss the need for training, both in the academy and in the field.  How important is perishable skills training (firearms, driving, defensive tactics) for officers?  What role does ethics training play in perishable skills training?  What other areas do you believe officers should receive training in?  Use studies from Google Scholar and the Police Executive Research Forum report to support your recommendations.
