What approach and contributions can you make if you are assigned as a Field Training Officer to young trainees

act like the CSM on "We were soldiers". Actually, the best thing you as an officer can do is let your NCO mold and train your young trainee... as an officer be a role model in what you know and do. Be the best commander you can...by letting your NCO work his/her soldiers as they know how to... beacuse when you leave he and everyone else will still be there,...then have to do the whole thing over again with someone new!

Residents get geared up when their problem solving switch gets flipped. Promote a cooperative exchange by bringing them in the unit and showing them the present procedures, enlist their help (hehe) by soliciting comments on possible improvements, or benefits gained by following current procedure.\nThat way they have a clearer perception of why you do what you do. (yea). And your department can benefit from the input too.

I enlisted and then became an officer through ROTC.  I would say that is the best way to go.  On my first day as a young tank Platoon Leader in Germany, I got in and helped a bunch of very shocked soldiers change track.  Few had seen an officer ever do that.\n\nKnowing what it's like to do the jobs EMs do and having done them is a good way to earn, initial, respect.  Your actions everyday, even on your bad days, determine the long term respect.  Standing up for your soldiers when they are right and going through demanding training with them are just two ways of building this long term respect.

fourbytwo pretty much nailed it! I was a new team leader to my brand new team of 10 contact centre advisers and was terrified!! but 3 years later I have all the same staff (very unusual in contact centre!) by not doing the 'do as I say, not as I do' thing.. lead by example and always promote the positive and coach the negative. Offer alternatives,not just 'this is wrong - sort it'. Stay human  - you were once in their shoes.. how did you want to be managed? stay true to yourself and don't be a tw*t and you'll gain respect. Finally nobody does anything unless it suits them - point out how it would further their career to be seen to take the initiative, or at least ensure they get their performance related pay!!

How about having students mentor and/or tutor younger children from the local elementary schools?  Or from your local homeless shelter?

Give them some subjective and objective scerarios. Keep it fluid and don't let them get too comfortable or complacent. Keep 'em guessing, but make it fair throughout. Evaluate them based on their decision making abilities and most importantly, hold them accountable for their actions and the actions of their subordinates.\n\nPut all of them in charge at one time or another and see how they act/react with different personalities, stressful situations in a changing environment.\n\n1. Pick some of the cadets and put them in charge.\n2. Tell the "leaders" that they must choose among their peers for a mission which will certainly lead to a number of deaths.\n3. Have them rehearse the mission numerous times.\n4. Observe how each one reacts to various stimuli\n5. HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE REGARDLESS OF THE OUTCOME!!!

I can only speak about our situation here in Northern ireland but most Trusts have SW trainee programmes where you agree to work for them after qualification (although actually they cant make you stick to it!)\n\nContact the training and development section of your local authority and speak to the most senior person you can get. If you are already half way through your training and doing OK you should be a cheap and attractive option for them\n\nAlternatively send a letter into community care magazine and you should get a lead there. good luck

You will probably need to do the following:\n\n1. Take a written exam\n2.  Take an oral exam\n3.  Take a physical agility test\n4.  Take a polygraph\n5.  Take a psychological test\n6.  Take a medical exam\n7.  Have a background investigation conducted\n\nAssuming you pass these tests/screenings, you'll need to go to the academy (unless you've already done so).  After successfully completing a basic academy, you'll most likely enter what's known as Field Training (FTO), where you're paired up with a senior officer and respond to calls.  This FTO will evaluate you on set criteria on a daily basis.  After passing FTO, you typically become a probationary officer.  In short, yes, it is a lot of work and something you need to be sure you want to put yourself through.  Academy can be boot campish and FTO can be difficult as well.\n\nAs for college, the majority of departments do not require it, but some do.  In any case, college and/or college credits are looked upon favorably.  In many cases, your pay increases may come at a faster clip if you have a degree.

Free time in an Army EOD unit isn't really that hard to come by, there is usually 4 week long field training excersies and they are usually fun\n\nAlso better have thick skin and not get offended easily becasue EOD techs are known to poke fun at everyone for everything

I am not sure what you mean, but when new recruits are training in the medical field, they would be sent to the supply unit for 'Fallopian Tubes"

Tell them the truth . Then tell them that since you have no experience that they can train you the way they want to and that's the way you'll do it because you don't know any other way !
