Spring EMS Author Podcast Series
During the recent EMS Today conference in Baltimore, Maryland, Jones & Bartlett Learning (JBL) sat down with a number of our authors to discuss their training programs. Over the next two months, JBL will be releasing those conversations to you as part of our Spring EMS Author Podcast Series.
In Their Own Words…
Today, JBL is pleased to present the fourth Podcast, a conversation with Barry Eberly and Bruce Nepon about Field Training Officer. In it, Barry and Bruce provide an overview of the text, discuss the supplements available, why they decided to author this text, and why it is important for EMS providers.

About Field Training Officer:
Field Training Officer provides comprehensive and concrete guidance on how to effectively perform the job of field training officer (FTO). Extensively field-tested, the approach presented has been used by the authors since 1998 and has helped train EMTs and paramedics in college, hospital, fire department, and third service programs. The text contains a variety of tips and techniques that experienced FTOs can use to supplement teaching methods they are currently using. New FTOs can use these same tips and techniques to develop an effective approach to teaching and evaluating students, and will help them “hit the ground running” as they assume their new duties.
This text is a must-have for all FTOs, preceptors, coaches, mentors, instructors, and any EMS personnel who provide instruction and evaluation of patient care providers.
