The world we live in runs on data. That means the world is, in part, run by data analysts. Law Enforcement Analysts are responsible for strategic and predictive crime analysis; they serve to report intelligence information, trends, and crime data. Agencies use that data to drive the effectiveness of evidence-based modern policing to create crime prevention and control strategies targeting a reduction in violent crime and assault and criminal property theft. This book is all about transforming you, as a Law Enforcement Analyst, into an information management professional who brings value to your agency operations as a productive, confident, growth-oriented, and deeply valued leader who thrives professionally and personally. “Dawn Reeby is an energetic analyst and trainer who has designed and delivered multiple nationally certified in-person, virtual, and hybrid analytical training workshops and who has provided technical assistance to analysts around the country, helping them establish or grow their agency’s analytical capacity.” Daniel A.
