Rebecca Lowery · Answer 1

(B) field training

Explanation:

Police recruit training for new officers begins with police academy, which provides most of the formal training and provides the start of the socialization process. The second phase is field training, which complements education from the police academy and prepares new officers for street work. Finally, in the probationary period, the department assesses the new officer's skills to perform the job effectively.
