Field Training Officers

Field Training Program

In addition to the basic police academy required by the Michigan Commission on Law Enforcement Standards every officer hired by the Saginaw Township Police Department undergoes an intensive 16 week training program. motosm                       

The program is coordinated by Lt. Jim Rich with Sergeants Deal, Oswald, Fleming, and Anderson serving as Field Supervisors.  The Field Supervisors are responsible for supervision of experienced road patrol officers that have had additional classroom instruction in the training of new recruits.

Currently STPD has 8 officers that rotate with new hires through various stages of learning.  The new officer is assigned a mentor, upon hiring, that helps guide the probationary officer as they settle into their new surroundings and career path.
