<strong>Cranford</strong> <strong>Police</strong> <strong>Department</strong> Training<br />

The <strong>Cranford</strong> <strong>Police</strong> <strong>Department</strong> is dedicated to serving our <strong>com</strong>munity with a standard of excellence<br />

in the performance of our duties. To that end, Chief Eric G. Mason is <strong>com</strong>mitted to the concept of<br />

continued training to enhance the skills and broaden the knowledge of all personnel thereby enabling<br />

them to handle the wide array of situations they encounter with confident professionalism.<br />

Our <strong>com</strong>munity is a dynamic, diverse and demanding environment necessitating recurrent training of<br />

our personnel to meet the challenges presented by changing laws and legal requirements, criminal<br />

tactics and trends, the rapid evolution of technology and the publics’ expectation of exceptional police<br />

assistance and services.<br />

<strong>Cranford</strong> <strong>Police</strong> Officers receive their mandatory initial training and certification at the John H. Stamler<br />

<strong>Police</strong> Academy in Scotch Plains, New Jersey. Upon graduation, the new officer enters our Field<br />

Training Program wherein they are teamed with a more seasoned formally trained Field Training<br />

Officer (FTO). During the next 14 weeks, the FTO functions as a mentor guiding the new officer<br />

through the practical application of policy, procedure and tactics ac<strong>com</strong>plishing specific training tasks<br />

within the framework of response to actual calls and performance of duties in the <strong>com</strong>munity.<br />

The New Jersey Attorney General mandates all New Jersey law enforcement officers receive semiannual<br />

training in firearms, use of force and vehicular pursuit.<br />

Moreover, throughout their careers, all personnel attend further training updates, programs, seminars<br />

and in-house presentations in a broad spectrum of disciplines to ensure our individual and collective<br />

<strong>com</strong>petency is of the highest caliber in the service of our citizens.<br />
