During this reporting period, there were no peer-to-peer technical assistance requests received or recommended by BJA. For cost savings, virtual peer exchanges may also be considered as online virtual platforms have been integrated into IIR’s core operations.
IIR ensures that there is, within the Leadership lesson of the Fundamentals of Task Force Operations Training curriculum, instruction on the importance of data collection, as well as the value of performance measures to determine and demonstrate the effectives of the task force in addressing and reducing crime. Instruction further includes guidance on setting performance objectives, identifying key performance indicators, and an explanation of how performance measurement is used to develop task force strategies, goals, and objectives.
