Find a local law enforcement agency for whom you would consider working.  Research all aspects of the agency.

For that employer, answer these questions:

  1. What is the agency / organization – describe it in detail
    • What responsibilities and/or duties does this agency fulfill?
    • Does the agency have the fiscal resources to fulfill those duties and what is their source of funding?  Discuss the budget specifically.
    • What is the mission statement of the agency; how many employees does this agency have?
    • Is the agency at full strength or are they seeking to fill positions by hiring?  If they are hiring, what are the reasons for the vacancies?
    • Does the makeup of the agency represent the community they serve (race, ethnicity, etc…)?  Please discuss demographic data that you are able to locate for this jurisdiction and how this compares to the demographics of the officers at the agency.
  2. What is the entry level position that you would seek with this agency? is the position sworn or non-sworn?
  3. What are the requirements of the position?
    • minimum age for sworn positions
    • physical (requirements for entry into either the position or any training academy / program)
    • educational (minimum education for new employees in this position)
    • is there any civil service or another entry-examination requirement?
    • any other related barriers and criteria (race, gender, religion, experience, knowledge, citizenship, residence, etc.)

The idea of the assignment is that you understand the scope and role of the agency and critically assess your eligibility and ability to seek this position during or after your college education.  I understand that you may not want to actually work in law enforcement so this is hypothetical. 

Your file submission must be a 3-5 page paper in APA format.  You will be graded on grammar and content.
