Mixed feelings... police in the US are woefully/tragically undertrained relative to police in Europe. 3-4 months is typical for a police academy in the US. Plus 6 months or so with a field training officer for basic on-job training.
Compared to 2.5 years of the same in Germany.
College may not be the right answer, but the current system of very little training isn't working.
