Staffing Analysis Implementation Program

NIC has been providing staffing analysis resources to the corrections community for over 30 years. Their staffing analysis process and methodology are widely regarded as the industry standard within the corrections community and beyond. Through this cooperative agreement, NIC seeks to provide the corrections community with opportunities to participate in the Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT) version of staffing analysis training. This program will enhance and expand staffing analysis training and technical assistance for federal, state, local, and tribal corrections agencies. Extracted from the processes and methodology depicted in NIC staffing analysis resources, the staffing analysis VILT curriculum was developed with distinct advantages for the participating agencies over the in-class delivery method. The staffing analysis process can be time-consuming and daunting for new or inexperienced analysts. As with most things, practical experience is the best instructor. Unlike the in-class curriculum, the NIC staffing analysis VILT training program provides participating agencies with step-by-step instruction and actual completion of a staffing analysis over the course of the training engagement. Participants will be supported throughout the learning process through live virtual instruction, structured intersession assignments, and individualized coaching as they complete a staffing analysis of custodial line officers and first-line supervisors at one of their agency’s facilities.
