Symposium on Crime Analysis

Law enforcement executives are invited to a free symposium, Advancing Policing Through Innovation and Science: A Crime Analysis Symposium for Law Enforcement Leaders, which will discuss how to integrate crime analysis into their policing strategies to reduce crime rates in a cost-effective way. The Police Foundation and the International Association of Crime Analysts, with support from the Bureau of Justice Assistance, are presenting the symposium on July 16, 2014 in Cambridge, Mass., from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Executives will be shown how to expand the use of crime analysis throughout their agencies to process data they are already collecting. The expert team of presenters will explore how agencies can integrate approaches such as problem-oriented policing, hot-spots policing, community policing, predictive policing and intelligence-led policing. This symposium is open to law enforcement executives and command staff only. The session is free, however, travel expenses are the responsibility of attendees.
