APPLICATION OF DISTANCE LEARNING TECHNOLOGIES IN THE PROFESSIONAL TRAINING OF BORDER PROTECTION SPECIALISTS: THEORETICAL BASICS AND GENERALIZATION OF EXPERIENCE

The article presents a review of scientific sources and publications aimed at determining the theoretical foundations of using distance learning technologies in the training of border guard specialists. It is found that these technologies have proven to be effective in the context of improving and enhancing the quality of professional training of border guards. The application of distance learning technologies in the professional training of border guard specialists is an important and necessary element in the modern world. The main theoretical foundations that justify the use of distance learning technologies in the professional training of border guard specialists in the European Union include such aspects as learning effectiveness, cost-effectiveness, wide access to training, modernity of technology, mobility and flexibility, interactivity and cooperation, and relevance of knowledge. It is found that among a fairly wide range of studies carried out in previous years, the authors focus on the use of distance learning technologies for the purpose of training and retraining of officers and junior personal of border agencies of Ukraine and other countries, to improve their qualifications in the retraining system, to update the knowledge of border protection specialists on regulatory and legal aspects in the field of border protection, to improve their communication skills (including foreign language skills). The role of distance learning technologies in developing the leadership skills of border guard specialists, improving their tactical medicine skills, etc. is also important. The use of distance learning technologies in the professional training of border guard specialists in the European Union is an important element of responding to the challenges of the modern world. Distance learning allows to ensure the quality of professional training of border guard specialists effectively and ensure that their knowledge and skills meet modern requirements and standards. However, despite the attention of scholars to this problem, there are currently only a few publications that present the experience of using distance learning technologies in the professional training of border guard specialists in the European Union.

Pedagogical Conditions for the Development of Professionally Important Qualities of Future Employees of the Internal Affairs Bodies

The changing social, political and economic conditions of society are reflected in the professional training of employees of the internal affairs bodies. The carried out theoretical analysis and comprehension of the results of the research activities of domestic and foreign authors in the context of the prevailing realities allowed us to identify the contradiction between the importance of improving the level of professional training of law enforcement officers and the existing insufficiency in taking into account their personal and professional potential. The implementation of a set of pedagogical conditions within the framework of a pedagogical experiment, carried out in accordance with the selected stages of the formation of the phenomenon under study, demonstrated the maximum increase in the level of its formation among cadets of one of the experimental groups, in the educational process of which the entire complex of pedagogical conditions was introduced. With the introduction of the first pedagogical condition, the number of cadets of the experimental group with a low level of the phenomenon under study decreased by 24 %, increased with an average level of 20 % and a high level of 4 %; of the second pedagogical condition, the number of cadets with a low level decreased by 33%, increased with an average level by 21 % and with a high level by 12 %; from three pedagogical conditions, the number of cadets with a low level of the phenomenon under study decreased by 58 %, increased with an average level by 23 % and with a high level by 35 %. The empirical data obtained allowed us to conclude about their high efficiency, and the possibility of their recommendation for practical use in universities of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia.

Gaining practical skills in handling firearms in modern realities and under martial law

The article presents the results of a scientific study, namely, the analysis of police training in firearms handling in accordance with the guidelines developed in peacetime before the beginning of Russian aggression. The author identifies the aspects that directly contribute to the selection of candidates for service in the national police, taking into account their previous experience and knowledge of firearms handling before starting their studies at higher educational institutions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine with specific training conditions.
 The author identifies promising areas of work to improve the quality of knowledge in the discipline “Firearms Training”, which directly affects the readiness of a police officer to protect the country and who must have practical skills in the use of modern weapons. The importance of strengthening the country’s defense capabilities and preparing young people to defend the homeland, as well as martial law as a special legal regime in exceptional circumstances when there is a threat of an armed attack on the country, is considered. The issues of promoting patriotic education and the development of special educational institutions for training future police officers were highlighted, and the need to improve the material and technical base, in particular, the importance of developing computer technologies and other modern teaching methods that will maximize the effect of the educational process in the training of law enforcement officers, was emphasized. The article gives an example which, in our opinion, should be further developed and applied in higher educational institutions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the course of firearms training, which will increase the motivation of students and cadets not only to obtain positive marks in the firearms training course, but also to achieve a high level of sports and professional skills.
 Namely, the regular holding of practical shooting competitions. All of these measures are aimed at strengthening the country’s defense capabilities and raising the level of professional training of police officers, which is important for ensuring national security and protecting Ukraine’s national interests.

The role of detention officers in the provision of jail healthcare in the Southeastern United States

Jailed individuals have considerable healthcare needs, yet jail healthcare resources are often limited. We interviewed staff from 34 Southeastern jails about strategies that jails use to deliver healthcare. One of the most prominent strategies was the use of detention officers to provide or facilitate the provision of healthcare. Officers' roles included assessing the need for medical clearance, conducting medical intake screenings, monitoring for suicide/withdrawal, transporting patients to medical appointments, medication administration, monitoring blood glucose and blood pressure, responding to medical emergencies, and communication with healthcare personnel. Several participants reported that due to officer shortages, conflicting priorities, and lack of adequate training, officers' healthcare roles can compromise privacy, delay access to care, and result in inadequate monitoring and safety. Findings suggest the need for training and standardized guidelines for officers' involvement in jail healthcare delivery and reassessment of the scope of officers’ healthcare responsibilities.

The article also highlights the need for police services to develop a culture of accountability and transparency to prevent misconduct and ensure public trust. In general, the article gives a practice-oriented view on the prevention of deviant states.

Educating Police Officers in Sweden – All about Making Meaning

This article discusses the rarely investigated learning processes of Swedish intra-professional police educators: police teachers, police supervisors and police field training officers. Through the interpretation of three interview studies conducted from a theoretical perspective of experiential learning, reflection and meaning-making, a new understanding of professional development as viewed through the eyes of an educator emerges. The findings exemplify how the empowerment of positive, reflexive and creative intentions amongst intra-professional police educators can be seen as an important component of preparing new police officers as well as developing the Swedish police force. Moreover, it will be implied that this particular process is driven by both intrinsic (the internal drive of the educators) and extrinsic (the educational context of the Swedish police) forces.

The Significance of Embodied Learning in Police Education

This article examines the role of the Norwegian field training officers (FTOs) as they see it and what they regard as important to teach police students attending in-field training. In Norway, FTOs are lower rank police officers, many of whom have newly graduated from the Norwegian Police University College (NPUC). The FTOs interviewed in this study described police work as a bodily practice and the subsequent teaching and learning as body oriented. The analysis shows that reflection on policing in-field is “inward looking”. The article situates this focus as an example of the FTOs’ “identity work” as resistance to the institutional requirements related to higher education. The article discusses how the purpose of in-field training and the purpose of higher police education entail an “identity tension” that may result in a salient problem regarding a common and holistic understanding of the purpose of police (higher) education.

THE MAIN DIRECTIONS OF PSYCHOLOGICAL TRAINING OF EMPLOYEES OF THE OPERATIONAL AND INVESTIGATIVE ACTIVITIES

Significant changes in the market system of Kazakhstan, the formation of a rule of law state, and the need of society for a significant improvement in the activities of law enforcement agencies put forward the task of scientific development and practical implementation of personnel policy in the law enforcement system of employees of the Operative Investigative Service (hereafter OIS). For this purpose, it is necessary to comprehensively investigate the specifics of the professional activity of an OIS officer, determine the requirements that this activity imposes on the psyche and personality of an OIS officer, and distinguish clear criteria for his professional suitability or unsuitability for work in law enforcement agencies. In the process of scientific research, we concluded that: - psychological training of police officers is one of the activities of law enforcement agencies. It forms employees' psychological resistance to various stress factors, the ability to act calmly and confidently in psychologically difficult situations during acute respiratory infections, as well as development of stress resistance. That is quite important since not all Operative Investigative Activities (OSA) employees can cope with the volume of work and quickly burn out; - professional communication of the OSA employees depends on professional and non-professional forms which are based on the rules of speech behavior adopted in a particular social environment; - it is necessary to conduct a special «Operative Investigative Psychology» course for students and undergraduates in the majors of «Jurisprudence» (the study of Law) «Psychology» and cadets of special educational institutions who trained employees of the OSA, psychologists. During the course, it is relevant to conduct training courses on the development of cognitive mental processes (sensation, perception, representation, imagination, thinking, memory, attention, speech); on the ability to work with people (establishing psychological contact, exerting influence on them, etc.); establishing the truth and making the right decision.

О необходимости совершенствования психологической подготовки сотрудников органов внутренних дел к служебной деятельности в условиях информационно-психологического противодействия

The article deals with the problem of improving psychological training, reflecting the current requirements for the performance of law enforcement officers in the conditions of information and psychological counteraction in the provision of mass events. It is noted that these conditions are associated with an increased level of tension, have a manipulative, provocative nature, which directly affects the psycho-emotional and physical condition of employees. In order to optimize the psychological training of police officers and improve the efficiency of our activities, we have analyzed the methods and techniques of information and psychological impact of the opposing side. The results of a pilot study are presented, on the basis of which the actual needs of students of educational organizations of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia in the process of psychological preparation for service to ensure the protection of public order and public safety are identified. In conclusion, on the basis of the analysis, the structure of psychological training of police officers for the conditions under consideration is proposed, which includes three components of activity: emotional, behavioral and cognitive. The content of the components is disclosed, according to which a list of psychological work activities is presented.

Évaluation de la santé mentale et des facteurs psychosociaux chez les élèves officiers de l’école de la marine marchande

IntroductionSeveral studies have demonstrated the existence of mental disorders and psychosocial risks among sailors, particularly merchant navy officers. The main risk factors reported are assuming the status of an officer, longer working hours and the consequent reduction in sleep time, loneliness, separation from family, and, more recently, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic (fear for one's own health and that of one's family, and longer embarkation times). The low decision latitude of crew members compared to that of officers has also been highlighted. To date, no studies have been carried out among merchant navy officer cadets. MethodsA working group including members of the Merchant Navy school and the hospital of the University of Brest was set up. A questionnaire was devised that included demographic and navigational data to which we added the GHQ-12, HAD and Karasek questionnaires. All the students were asked to complete the questionnaire anonymously and submit it electronically. The results of the questionnaires were then analyzed using internationally recognized scoring procedures. A descriptive analysis phase was conducted which was followed by an analysis according to the Karasek scoring categories. ResultsIn all, 170 questionnaires were submitted. The participant population was predominantly male (76.4%), and the average age of the students was 21.7 years. Nearly 20% of the students stated that they had experienced a traumatic event during an on-board training course. We note that the average GHQ-12 is 13.3 and therefore higher than 12. The HAD anxiety and HAD depression averages are 6.9 and 5.37 respectively, with 18.2% and 7.6% of the students included showing signs of anxiety and depression. According to Karasek's classification, we note that the “active” class is the most represented with 29.4% of students, followed by the “tense” and “relaxed” classes with 27.6%. The “passive” class is the least represented with 15.3%. DiscussionThis study demonstrates that the students of the French Merchant Navy Officer Training School evaluated their overall health as average, with a predominance of anxiety disorders but few signs of depression. Signs of “work strain” according to the Karasek questionnaire were found in 1/4 of these young officers. The proportion of cadets showing signs of anxiety and depression according to the HAD questionnaire is similar to that shown in studies among French and European officers. On the other hand, the proportion of cadets classified as “tense” is higher. Concerning traumatic events, in a semi-structured analysis of the students’ first deployments at sea, the main stress factors reported were how the ship was managed, damaged, piracy and then weather conditions. The period of study within the ENSM involves both a period of theoretical learning but also one of practical training. In the highly specific environment of the merchant navy, the impact of psychosocial constraints seems to be significant. These data also raise questions about the impact of the profession as well as that of the SARS CoV-2 pandemic period. This also raises the issue of the fitness of certain students to sail where they showed signs of anxiety and depression at the time of the survey, and of others who are at risk of developing this type of pathology, which is included in the list of criteria for unfitness for sea duty.

Composing a Standard for Electronic Chart Display and Information System Type Specific Training

Electronic Chart Display and Information System (ECDIS) training is accepted as extremely important for safety in modern navigation. At present, two types of training are required for deck officers. Operational use of ECDIS is mandatory training for deck officers and it is conducted according to the International Maritime Organization (IMO) Model course 1.27. This course provides general knowledge about ECDIS. Type specific training is indispensable for the officers to know all the capabilities, functions, and limitations of the ECDIS used onboard. The lack of regulations for this type of training allows the manufacturers of ECDIS to apply their own requirements. This can result in improper and insufficient training. Based on research of the opinion and experience of deck officers, the authors of the paper propose a model of a standard for type specific training.

Implementing international law: capacity-building, coordination and control

The implementation of international law requires State capacity, including knowledge of treaties and institutions by domestic officials. The training of State officials is often delivered by an international organisation, agency or secretariat as part of the capacity-building programmes required by the treaty that each administers. Yet, of the increasingly urgent calls for international cooperation to address climate change, biodiversity crises, public health threats and plastic pollution, among other issues, not one can be addressed by a single treaty or international organisation. The practical, operational and theoretical challenges of coordination deserve more attention by international lawyers. This is especially important given the development of pandemic-era remote learning technologies and the proliferation of e-learning opportunities. Disparities in resources, and the categorisation of developing and developed countries, further complicates the production and dissemination of knowledge. This article focuses on capacity-building, technical assistance and training, and includes the author’s experience with collaborative training initiatives in ocean governance, to which United Nations agencies, the World Bank and academic partners contribute. The article describes the high stakes of integrative initiatives, the outreach by international organisations and the interaction between regimes. It seeks to account for collaborative capacity-building activities and the adaptive role of participants within the system of international law.

Особенности мотивации и самоконтроля курсантов вузов МВД России на разных этапах обучения

<p style="text-align: justify;">The paper discusses the results of an empirical study of the motivation and self-control characteristics in cadets of the Ministry of Internal Affairs university at different stages of training. The theoretical basis of the paper is research analysis of different works made by different authors, confirming the polymotivation and dynamism of motivational characteristics in the process of carrying out educational and professional activities. The study involved 118 cadets of The Vladimir Kikot Moscow University of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia at all stages of training (aged from 17 to 22 years). To collect empirical data, the following methods were used: “Scale of academic motivation” (authors T.O. Gordeeva, O.A. Sychev, E.N. Osin); questionnaire of volitional self-control (authors A.G. Zverkov, E.V. Eidman). The results of the study showed statistically significant differences in the intensity of educational and professional motivation and self-control at different stages of training. The results obtained can be used to optimize the process and quality of training of future law enforcement officers.</p>

Perception de différentes dimensions de la psychiatrie par les agents de police : étude sur 191 policiers parisiens

IntroductionPsychiatric pathologies are widespread in the general population and rank third among the most frequent pathologies in the world, according to the World Health Organization, affecting nearly one in four people over their lifetime. Police officers in France are often required to intervene with people suffering from psychiatric disorders when they are involved in disturbances to public order. However, despite the frequency of these interventions in France, only a few specific training courses in psychiatry are made available to police officers. There has not been any research conducted in France on this subject. The objective of our study was to explore the perception of different dimensions of psychiatry (symptoms, treatments, prevalence, and dangerousness) by the Parisian police through an exploratory study. MethodA self-administered questionnaire was sent to Parisian police officers through an internal mailing list. The questionnaire was comprised of 25 questions divided into five sub-sections. The first section of the questionnaire concerned the demographic and professional characteristics of the participants (age, gender, rank, and years of experience). The second section explored the exposure (personal and professional) of police officers to psychiatry. The third and fourth sections were devoted to questions about training in psychiatry and their perception of the different dimensions of psychiatry. The last section of the questionnaire was dedicated to any comments regarding the questionnaire. ResultsOne hundred and ninety-one Parisian police officers – 106 men (56%) and 83 women (43%) – responded to the questionnaire and many of them reported frequent exposure to psychiatry (two-thirds say they are involved at least once a month with patients suffering from psychiatric disorders). The most frequently encountered problems were delusional ideas, agitation, suicide attempts or suicides, behavioral problems related to substance abuse, and hallucinations. We generally found benevolent attitudes on the part of the police. The police officers questioned evoked: mistrust (94.7%), empathy (46.8%), fear (37.4%), incomprehension (32.9%), and a negative judgment (8.4%), and 84% of the police officers reported an increased risk of using force during interventions involving people with psychiatric disorders. These results can be partly explained by the impairment of discernment found in people with decompensated psychiatric disorders, communication difficulties between police and patients, and the lack of training in the management or recognition of such symptoms. In addition, the majority of the participants reported feeling insufficiently trained in psychiatry and were in favor of the implementation of specific training courses either during their studies or as an element in their professional career: three-quarters of the police officers questioned never had any training in psychiatry during their studies or since taking up their post, and 80% of the police officers said they were inadequately trained to evaluate and deal with situations involving psychiatric disorders. The police officers largely favored specific training: 82.7% of them would like to be more trained in psychiatry during their studies or on the job, thus underlining a desire to be better prepared for these interventions. ConclusionThis study is, to our knowledge, the first of its kind in France on this subject. Several results are consistent with those of international scientific literature and highlight the frequent exposure of Parisian police officers to people with psychiatric disorders and the officers’ mostly benevolent, understanding, and non-stigmatizing attitudes. Nevertheless, police officers remain insufficiently trained in psychiatry, and this lack of training can be the source of communication difficulties, mistrust, or fear and thus increase the risk of the use of force. The majority of the study participants favor implementing these training courses, particularly with respect to the management of agitation and behavioral disorders, which are the symptoms most frequently encountered during these interventions. This study remains exploratory but could inform future work, mainly in implementing and evaluating specific psychiatric training for police officers.

Evaluation of the Pulmonary Tuberculosis Control Program

Pulmonary Tuberculosis is still a priority health problem in Indonesia, and around 1.5 M people experience TB resistance where the treatment rate is only 38% in 2019 and the global TB treatment rate is only 57% successful, resistant TB costs a lot, is difficult treated so that it becomes a priority for global TB control programs. The high burden of disease and treatment for patients, poor recovery, mortality, and high mortality lead to distress for patients, families, and caregivers. This study aims to determine the success of the program, program achievements include detection rates, conversion rates, cure rates and cross checks, as well as management of human resources and facilities in implementation, as well as obstacles to pulmonary TB disease control programs in Pangkep Regency, the research method used is descriptive to obtain an overview of the P2TB Pulmonary Program in Pangkep Regency. Based on the results of the evaluation of the P2TB program at the community health centers, when viewed from the input aspect, the process is still not in accordance with the applicable requirements and guidelines, the detection of positive smear patients does not reach the target, the cure rate is low below the national target, the error rate is unknown because no cross check is carried out, so it is necessary to have officer training and refreshing courses for laboratory staff, carry out cross checks and cross-program collaboration and PMO guidance, and there is a need for screening activities in areas where there are many sufferers.

Developing evidence based practice skills in youth justice

A number of studies have found that when probation officers, and others who supervise young people and adults on community based orders, have good intervention skills their clients are more likely to be engaged in supervision and to have low recidivism rates. The skills include, role clarification, pro-social modelling, problem solving, cognitive and relationship skills. Little research has been done, however, on the development of these skills across whole organisations. This study aimed to examine the extent to which training and coaching of probation officers, across two state youth justice departments in Australia, improved the use of workers’ skills. Audio-tapes of worker/client interviews were provided to research staff before and after training and coaching. Analysis of the audio-tapes found a significant increase in the overall use of worker skills following the training and coaching. However, the increases in the skills applied largely to role clarification, rather than pro-social modelling, problem solving and cognitive skills.
