We introduce FTOs to our methods of teaching, evaluating and documenting trainees. They get to experience the core portions of what has made our 40-hour FTO course so successful.
Your FTOs leave with the latest, cutting edge information on use of technology, principled based policing, de-escalation and most importantly how to actually TEACH new officers and laterals alike.
Here are 3 reasons that our students say FTOs need to take this course:
- Learn from current and former FTOs and FTO Supervisors
- Learn how to diagnose a training deficiency and potentially save a struggling trainee
- Learn modern techniques for teaching, evaluating, and documenting
This course is POST-certified in California and Idaho.

Most agencies struggle with hiring and retaining quality recruits. Having well trained FTOs can make the difference between recruits successfully passing the Field Training Program or not. Your seasoned FTOs need to constantly hone their skills. What better way to do it than for them to attend what our students are calling “the best FTO training there is”?
Your FTOs ability to teach, evaluate and document can make all the difference, especially when it comes to remediating a struggling recruit. Your FTOs are preparing your new officers to be the future of your department. We’re going to give them the tools to do just that.
Plus get access to 10 refresher training videos featuring our Savage Training Group FTO Instructors!
The learning doesn’t stop when you leave this course. Each FTO student will receive 10 separate training videos sent to them in the weeks and months after the course. That means that the learning doesn’t stop after you attend our course.
These videos are a $268 value. We’re including them here at no additional charge for students who complete the course!

What’s different about our FTO Update Course? Everything. This is a modern course being presented by expert level instructors. Each day, the students teach, evaluate and document so by the time they leave the course they are confident they’re up to date and doing it right.
We know how important hiring and retaining new officers is to your agency so we designed an update course that ensures FTOs are ready to move that trainee successfully through the Field Training Program. For those trainees who must be let go, our course teaches FTOs how to thoroughly document the matter and avoid liability for the agency.
