Summary: Subscribe via iTunes Field training can be very rewarding, but it can also be a very trying experience.  New officers sometimes come to the job lacking skills they need to be an effective police officer.  Believe it or not, their iPod or iPhone might be able to help. iTunes University is part of the Apple experience.  The University offers free online classes on a very wide range of topics and at all educational levels.  All you do is search iTunes for the skill you’d like to learn and download what you find.  For example, if you have a recruit that is having problems with grammar, bounce over to iTunes U and grab one of the English language classes.
