Final Project: Part 3 – Training and Implementation Assignment

Final Project: Part 3 – Training and Implementation Assignment

Q OVERVIEWLaw Enforcement Agencies must be flexible and able to respond to societal demands. Leaders for social change advocate for police departments that mirror their constituents in terms of ethnicity, race, gender, and in other areas. This challenges leaders to develop innovative methods of recruiting and hiring. The final project will consist of three separate assignments that focus on identifying the need for a diversity hiring policy within law enforcement agencies. The training and implementation assignment asks you to develop a plan for sustainment and in-service training as well as address the future of diversity hiring and the overall implications to law enforcement leadership. Each aspect of the assignment must connect the dots between a justification for the policy and how it will address identified deficiencies in current hiring policy and practice. Law Enforcement Organizations face an increasing struggle with hiring police officers. Consequently, there is a need to consider assembling a police force that resembles the communities that are being served. An increased focus on civil liberties, the rise to prominence of advocacy groups such as Black Lives Matter and police-involved shootings have all combined to create an urgency for law enforcement agencies to be responsive to the need for diversity within the force.INSTRUCTIONSFor this Final Project: Part 3 – Training and Implementation Assignment, you will continue your search of best practices for diversity hiring, look at curriculum used by at least one police agency in its academy training, and develop a plan to incorporate diversity issues into academy and sustainment training. Identify the specific elements that would be incorporated into the academy training to include the total hours devoted to that component. Sustainment training should be identified as well, including frequency of training and who would be required to attend that training. The final element of this assignment asks you to address the future of diversity hiring. You can use professional experiences (if you have them) here, add your own critical analysis of the problem, and/or include a section that addresses a specific related issue within the topic of diversity hiring. For example, can our law enforcement agencies effectively recruit, train, and hire themselves toward a more diverse and inclusive force??This Final Project: Part 3 – Training and Implementation Assignment should be 3-5 pages, not including title and reference pages, written in APA format, and include at least two peer-reviewed references not previously used, and at least one review of a law enforcement academy curriculum. ?Acceptable sources for references are peer reviewed journal articles from the Liberty University library that have been published within the past five years. Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.

This is the final stage of the assignment and it focusses on the training and implementation of the policy that we have discussed in the last two papers. The policy we have been focussing upon is bringing in a greater amount of diversity in the police department by employing more and more minorities and people from the LGBTQ community. We have already understood the necessity as well as outcome of keep a diverse police force for the greater good of the community.
