As police budgets shrink or stagnate, and workload demands increase, law enforcement agencies are often asked to “do more with less.” Improving the effectiveness and efficiency of patrol staffing, deployment and scheduling is a critical task. This workshop will provide law enforcement managers with tools and techniques to better utilize human resources. In this hands-on course, participants will build an Excel workbook containing the necessary formulas to conduct a data-driven staffing study.

Participants are required to bring a laptop computer, preloaded with Microsoft Excel, and an external mouse. A working knowledge of Microsoft Excel is strongly recommended.
