What if I am already a certified officer going from the Advanced Academy to the field? Dont I go right to the field and start working solo?
No. ALL officers (brand new or laterals) must take part in the FTO program. Certified officers who are able to meet all of the training objectives of the Field Training Manual may have the FTO period reduced up to five weeks. This decision will be made by the new Officers chain of command in concurrence with the FTO coordinator.
