Please join the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) and the International Association of Directors of Law Enforcement Standards and Training (IADLEST) for the Building Analytical Capacity Initiative webinar, “People, Places, Patterns, and Problems: A Foundation for Crime Analysis" on Wednesday, May 25, from 2:00 – 3:30 p.m. ET. The purpose of this webinar is to summarize how a police agency – and a crime analysis unit – can be simultaneously community-oriented, problem-oriented, intelligence-led, predictive, CompStat-managed, data-driven, evidence-based, harm-focused, and “smart” based on best practices and literature on policing. During the session, attendees will learn how to achieve this by organizing activities around the four “Ps”: People, Places, Patterns, and Problems.
The session will also review the techniques used by three different approaches to crime analysis, as well as the different operational outcomes they support. Participants will learn to incorporate these four focus areas into a framework for effective analysis and use of that analysis. Registration is free, but is limited to the first 500 enrollees.
