Expanding knowledge about emerging trends that face state and local policymakers so we can provide current, effective TA

The Antelope Valley region is the largest geographical area within the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department’s jurisdiction. The area’s population ballooned in the 1980s and 1990s due to massive residential and commercial development. As a result, the crime rate steadily increased. The demographics changed drastically due to the migration of south Los Angeles gangs taking a stronghold within the area. LASD assigned personnel to obtain necessary resources, analyze the problems, devise a plan, and coordinate the crime reduction and community policing efforts.

Both the substance of crime analysis (the ways criminals commit crimes) and methods of crime analysis—including the tools and techniques analysts use—are in a constant state of change. Analysts who come to the job with a set of skills and knowledge will soon find themselves obsolete if they do not keep up-to-date with continual professional development. This session outlines the importance of and methods for continued professional development for crime analysts, including sources of training and systems for prioritizing education and training.
