Overview
For this assignment, you will be tasked with creating a recruitment presentation for the Jurisville Police Department. Keep in mind that for law enforcement agencies to be successful in the future, it is more important than ever for municipalities and departments to identify, recruit, and employ a well-trained and professional police force, that identifies the needs of the community. From making arrests to using proper force to understanding technological devices to dealing with individuals with mental health issues and victims of hate crimes, police officers are increasingly performing many different roles. In their efforts to provide their citizens with a properly trained and professional police force, municipalities need to know that officers are adhering to their training and operating under established policies and procedures.
Today’s police officer is not just one who can perform the basic functions of an officer, but one who also possesses the “intangible skills” or characteristic traits that are necessary, such as empathy, compassion, trustworthiness, adaptability, critical thinking, conflict resolution, and cultural awareness.
Scenario
You are the “new recruiting Officer” for the Jurisville Police Department and the Police Chief has asked you to put together a recruitment presentation to be presented to area high school/college students at the annual Job Fair. The Chief has given you the liberty to identify and focus your presentation on the needs of Jurisville with specific instructions to include a diverse hiring focus (matching the community demographics), as well as hiring individuals who are well-rounded and balanced in both characteristic traits and skills. Keep in mind that today’s Officer is highly skilled in basic police work, but also must possess the ability to deal with all types of crimes and the victims of those crimes.
