Summary

"[This report presents] the results of an extensive 10 month analysis of the current human resource planning and management practices in the policing sector – specifically [the authors] examined processes and practices in four critical areas of human resource management: recruitment and retention, education and training, succession planning and leadership development and the application of competency-based human resource management frameworks. The study included conducting surveys, interviews, and focus-groups with representatives from a broad range of the many constituent policing groups."--Page 1.
