PPP111 Simulated Policing - Acquiring Confidence (4)

Abstract

The primary purpose of this subject is to allow students to examine how the discrete skills and knowledge areas taught in other subjects come together in order to achieve appropriate policing outcomes. The focus is principally upon integration of their skills and knowledge areas rather than competence in practice. Formative feedback on their practice and opportunities to repeat elements of their role-plays, will be given under conditions where their proficiency is not (yet) assessed, so that mistakes and/or poor practice are not perpetuated or overlooked.
