...I watched the movie Training Day. This movie shows many examples of unmoral and unethical police work. Denzel Washington is a narcotics detective for the LAPD named Alonzo Harris. His methods of enforcing the law are very questionable during the film, if not corrupt. Harris’ job is to train rookie Jake Hoyt over a 24-hour period. Many Ethical dilemmas arise for Hoyt and this presents questions for him whether or not to follow along with Harris, and if his methodology for ridding the streets in South Central Los Angeles is right or wrong. After breakfast the two get Alonzo’s low rider and hit the streets of South Central Los Angeles. They first spot a teenage girl dealing drugs in the park. And the stop the college student buyers and instead of arresting the buyers Alonzo takes the drugs and lets the students go. Jake would have done the opposite in this situation before. Before long Alonzo tells Jake he has to take a hit of this marijuana. But Jake doesn’t want to. Alonzo puts a gun to his head until he does. Alonzo says the failure to take the drug on the street could get him killed by a dealer. After smoking the marijuana Alonzo tells him that it was laced with PCP. This hypothetical question was put to the test in the movie Training Day, a movie based on ethical dilemmas involving two police officers. Later in the movie when driving the streets Jake notices a young high school girl getting sexually attacked by two men in alley way. This first thing Jake does it jumps out...

...I watched the movie Training Day, which is about a veteran police officer, Alonzo Harris who trains rookie cop, Jake Hoyt, on his very first day with the Los Angeles Police Department’s narcotics unit. Alonzo is a corrupt police officer, meanwhile, wants to be the superhero cop. Over the course of 24 hours, Alonzo puts Jake through a lot of questionable situations that make him choose between being the sheep or the wolf. 1. In the Police Organization, they use what’s called the “time-in-rank system” when promoting officers. This system is good because it ensures organizational stability, and maintains fairness in the promotional system. Once you earn your rank, it is your rank. It’s rare for ranks to be taken away. This system is good because it protects agencies from losing valuable administration to other departments. Just as there are positives there are a few negatives to using the “time-in-rank system.” Unfortunately, it prohibits rapid advancement and restricts administrative flexibility. In Training Day, Alonzo said Jake would make detective if he stuck with him and “unlearn all the bullshit he learned in the academy because it’d get him killed.” He also tells him if he gives him 18 months, he would...

...Good Cop Gone Bad In the movie Training Day, one sees the story of trainee officer Jake Hoyt getting the chance to join an elite narcotics unit in the Los Angeles police department. As Hoyt’s training day progresses, Alonzo Harris, the unit’s commanding officer, introduces Hoyt to the world of corrupt police officers. Through Akers’ and Burgess’ social learning theory, one can see that Hoyt succumbs to the lifestyle of being a corrupt police officer. According to the social learning theory, the people whom one interacts with the most influence the way a person acts and how they view the world. In this case, Alonzo Harris socializes Jake Hoyt into being a corrupt police officer by threatening Hoyt if he did not do what Harris said. Initially,...

...When you go through life you can reflect to see yourself on one side of the fence or the other. You find yourself maybe being picked on in school and that stays with you for a lifetime. Just as someone gets picked on in the street, the person in the classroom develops the same “gang mentality” except the gang he chooses to join the police force. He then chooses to strike back at those he sees as people he would identify as bullies when he himself may be. Throughout the movie Training Day, various traits of subculture exist along with conflicts of police corruption. Although many different things can be given credit to the corruption of police officers, the main focus should be on if it can be stopped. Inside our police system, everyday officers either misuse responsibility that was given or do not demonstrate the moral standards that society has laid out for them. Due to the nature that the criminal justice field offers, often there’s a breakdown of these of standards through time spent dealing with crime. One does not change their ideas based solely on their daily relations, however, it can impact them. Police can be influenced to have bias opinions about particular people due to spending a great deal of time with crime. People grew up with the mentality that police officers were corrupt, and as time went on those...

...his new recruits. Robins either failed to follow a specific guideline in place for the process of organizing and training new trainees or a specific guideline was not given to him. He assumed certain things and procrastinated, therefore, created a situation of disorder. As a consequence he must make up for lost time and actively correct his incomplete situation. The challenges Robins created by not planning thoroughly were: incomplete files on each new recruit, incomplete orientation manuals for the new trainees, and not securing the training room for orientation. Robins has less than two weeks to correct his mistakes and creatively come up with a solution for not have a room for training. This case involved issues concerning organization and follow through. Robins needed to initiate a detailed plan. To ensure success ABC, Inc. needs a proper training system in place for new recruits as well as a system in place for its new campus recruiter to follow. Robins faces the challenge of making up for lost time and lost resources.

...Training is the process of instructing an individual about how to carry out tasks directly related to his or her current job. The purpose of training staff is to develop existing skills or gain new ones. This contrasts with development which involves helping individual employees to achieve their full potential, regardless of whether this is related to their existing position or role. There are two main methods of training: on-the-job and off-the-job training. On-the-job training is where employees receive instruction in their workplace whilst carrying out their job. Off-the-job training is where employees receive instruction away from the workplace, for instance at a training centre, college or university. Training brings benefits to both employees and the business. It increases the levels of skills, so improving productivity, quality and reduces the risk of injuries in the workplace. It makes employees more flexible, enabling them to respond quickly to changes in technology and demand. It also motivates employees by improving their career prospects. For Redrow, induction training has been paramount in ensuring staff turnover rates are lower than the industry average. New recruits at all levels receive a formal induction. Induction provides initial training specific to the employee’s role as well as giving an insight into the company as a whole. This helps recruits to quickly settle into their roles. Whilst training gives businesses the benefits of greater efficiency, improved...

...Chick-Fil-A Training and Development Thomas Hunter Clifton Norton Matthew Todd Keller Graduate School of Management Chick-Fil-A Training Needs Assessment And Recommendations Chick-Fil-A opened its first store in Atlanta, Georgia in 1967. It has continued to grow at a steady pace and now has over 1,700 locations across the United States. The popular restaurant has recorded 45 consecutive years of positive sales growth and, “System-wide sales in 2012 reached 4.6 billion.” (Company Fact Sheet, 2014). Chick-Fil-A is still a private, family owned company that offers franchise opportunities to well qualified entrepreneurs. Their growth model is deliberately slow, building on a firm foundation of conservative business practices. The success is attributed in part from the founder’s firm decision to close its doors every Sunday. The idea is that “…all franchised Chick-fil-A Operators and their Restaurant employees should have an opportunity to rest, spend time with family and friends, and worship if they choose to do so.” (Why We’re Closed on Sundays, 2014). The focus for this project is on the Chick-Fil-A store located at 7990 North Academy Blvd, Colorado Springs, CO. This location is used for many of the pilot programs that test the suitability of new procedures and equipment before chain-wide implementation. During an interview with the Director of Training, Brad Beck said about his training philosophy, “99 percent of a successful training program is fitting...

I get to travel and meet a variety of different people. Every consulting job seems to be unique. ABC, Inc. is a well-known manufacturing company in a medium-sized city. A newer campus recruiter, Carl Robins, is responsible for hiring new employees who work on the assembly line. His duties are to advertise for the positions, review resumes and conduct interviews. His first recruiting assignment was for Monica Carrolls, the Operations Supervisor. With the help of Monica, Carl chose the qualified candidates and offered them positions. This first assignment was a learning experience for him. * In early April, after reviewing many resumes and conducting numerous interviews, Carl hired 15 new trainees. He worked with Monica to determine the start date of June 15. This is the day the new employees will begin and when orientation week will begin. One of Carl’s responsibilities is to make sure he has all of the necessary information in the new employees’ files prior to the start date. * In the middle of May, Monica contacted Carl about the orientation of the new trainees. She wanted to confirm that everything was ready for the orientation classes that would take place in one month.
