CNA used machine learning models on officer injury and death data from police agencies to see how risk assessment could lead to safer dispatch communications.

Developing a Pilot Risk Assessment Model for Law Enforcement Patrol Developing a Pilot Risk Assessment Model for Law Enforcement Patrol CNA used machine learning models on officer injury and death data from police agencies to see how risk assessment could lead to safer dispatch communications. Officer safety is of critical importance in an era of increased risk for law enforcement officers ... the potential for machine learning to identify high-risk incidents to officers using only the information available to dispatchers. A risk assessment model that could successfully flag high-risk

Navy Shore Infrastructure Investment Support

/reports/2008/navy-shore-infrastructure-investment-support

This paper describes the development process that CNA used to create a new methodology for the Navy to assess shore infrastructure readiness for support tasking, and it documents the design concepts for a shore facilities investment model. This model was developed as a programming tool for OPNAV N46 staff to adjust investment project profiles and funding levels to achieve desired performance output levels at the end of the current FYDP. The methodology involved creating measures of merit to quantify the current and future performance levels and a functional segmentation of the infrastructure to provide a greater understanding of shore support capabilities and shortfalls. The new technique required a method for indexing the measures of merit together in a consistent manner to provide the Navy with an ongoing readiness assessment number. It also required the creation of a baseline year infrastructure inventory assessment to use as the starting point for analyzing future year impact of current shore investment funding profiles. We developed a process to quantify the projected impact of proposed military construction and special projects upon the measures of merit.

Impacts on Field Training Officer Programs: Pairing Trainers and Trainees

/quick-looks/2021/impacts-of-field-training-officer-programs-pairing-trainers-and-trainees

Field training is often described as the most important stage in an officer’s career. The time spent with a field training officer is vital to the trainee’s career development and helps shapes the culture of an agency. Thus, it is imperative that the trainer-trainee relationship is one which facilitates learning and growth.

During this assessment, CNA examined common practices and policies that law enforcement agencies use within their field training, such as the qualifications an officer must have to become an FTO ... Officer Impact Assessment: Field Guide, trainers are more often paired with a trainee based on their availability, and less often based on a formalized assessment to measure the compatibility of the trainer-trainee. While some agencies noted their pairing practices were based on availability due to a shortage of training officers, most agencies did complete an informal personality assessment
