Syllabus:
The complete and final syllabus is being designed by the Program Delivery Team for approval by the CACP Board of Directors in November 2014.
The CACP Global program is designed to serve as a unique experiential learning medium for participants. Specific learning outcomes and components are mapped to the prevailing competency models currently in use in police leadership development in Canada. The learning sessions are designed to utilize and build upon prior learning outcomes from other existing executive development programs. Based on this model, it is expected that workshop and seminar topics will include:
- Priorities and imperatives facing the Canadian Criminal Justice and Public Safety sectors
- Operational adequacy guidelines and objective audit, assessment and performance measurement methods
- Research, Interpretive Inquiry and Systems Inquiry methods and techniques
- Qualitative and quantitative analysis and benchmarking techniques
- Organizational change and systems design methodologies
- International crime prevention, law enforcement, public order, emergency response, victim assistance and justice administration and governance patterns and strategies
- Social, demographic and cultural trends and indicators
