POLICE RESOURCE ALLOCATION AND DEPLOYMENT
Patrol Staffing Methods for Law Enforcement Managers
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.
