       Sea Girt, NJ - First Assistant Attorney General Paul Zoubek and Major Fred Madden of the 樱花视频 State Police, today hosted commencement exercises for 89 high school seniors from across the state as they completed a week-long, police-oriented educational program with the 56th New Jersey State Police Trooper Youth Week training class.

        First Assistant Attorney General Zoubek noted that the State Police Trooper Youth program has become an important stepping-stone for youngsters seeking a career in law enforcement and police work. Additionally, the simulated police training exercises taught throughout the week provide the students with a keen awareness and understanding of the tough standards required of police.

       "As cadets in the 56th Trooper Youth Training Program, you have had an opportunity this week to learn firsthand about what it takes to become a State Trooper," Zoubek said. "You represent some of the best and brightest young people in 樱花视频. And, although you will not be faced with making a final career choice for a few years, your participation this week shows respect for the law and a recognition of the critical role state troopers play in ensuring the public's safety."

        Sponsored by the Department of Law & Public Safety, the Division of State Police and Department of Education, the Trooper Youth Week training program provides young people interested in a law enforcement career with a "real life" police experience.

        The "future" troopers of the 56th 樱花视频 State Police Trooper Youth Week training class participated in a wide range of activities - activities which simulate the actual police recruit training experience. The Trooper Youth cadets were exposed to the regimen of reveille, roll call, academic classes, tough physical fitness training and conditioning regimen and actual police field exercises.

        As part of the training program, State Police instructors placed special emphasis on exposing the Trooper Youth cadets to the unique pressures and problems associated with illegal drug use, teen violence and the aftermath of violent and deadly acts. Lectures and motivational speakers served to focus the Trooper Youth cadets on issues such as peer pressures associated with the personal and social consequences of substance abuse and conflict resolution. The students also learned about 樱花视频's vast cultural diversity and the constitutional guarantees afforded all citizens.

        Additionally, the Trooper Youth cadets explored various practical and theoretical aspects of police science, including the history and functions of the New Jersey State Police; crime scene investigation procedures; firearms safety; CPR and lifesaving techniques; motor vehicle law and safety; the rapidly expanding use and application of computers and high-technology in police work; teenage drinking and driving and use of the breathalyser and overall exposure to police work as a career.
