As a retired police officer herself, Alley Evola looks at the daily ins and outs of the job of a police officer. Through recruitment, life at the academy, patrol, and eventually promotion, she provides a helpful understanding of what you can really expect. She also looks at current issues, including race and gender, and how these have shaped certain expectations from the public that a police officer needs to be prepared for when working in this field. When you're young and dreaming, you don't think about the process it will take to become a police officer. The many challenges and issues you will face in the field are not evident until after the police academy. [This book] is for everyone who secretly wishes they were a police officer or is pursuing their dream in the hope of transforming it into reality." -- Back cover. 650 0 $a Police $x Vocational guidance $z United States. 650 0 $a Law enforcement $x Vocational guidance $z United States. 650 7 $a Law enforcement $x Vocational guidance. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00993993 650 7 $a Police $x Vocational guidance. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01068544 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 650 7 $a BUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Careers. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a LAW / Criminal Law. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a LAW / Criminal Procedure. $2 bisacsh 776 08 $i Online version: $a Evola, Alley, 1971- author. $t So you want to be a cop $d Lanham : Rowman & Littlefield, [2017] $z 9781538101483 $w (DLC) 2017020206 941 $a 8 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722054615.0 952 $l CEAX572 $d 20200508022452.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20181107051507.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20181010012340.0 952 $l HWAX074 $d 20180524044749.0 952 $l PNAX964 $d 20180512010147.0 952 $l SOAX911 $d 20171206010912.0 952 $l EBPE325 $d 20171116011529.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2761F4F49E9211E79390414B97128E48 994 $a Z0 $b UIIInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
