TRAINING RESOURCES OFFERED BY UNIVERSITIES, INSTITUTES, LAW ENFORCEMENT ACADEMIES, AND PRIVATE SOURCES WERE TO BE ASSESSED. ALSO TO BE INCLUDED IN THAT IDENTIFICATION WERE A DESCRIPTION OF THE COURSE GOAL, CONTENT, DURATION, AND THE PERSONNEL PROVIDING INSTRUCTION. SOURCES OF TRAINING FOR OPERATIONAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES THAT ARE DIRECTED SOLELY TO THE CRIME ANALYSIS PROCESS WERE FOUND TO BE ESSENTIALLY NONEXISTENT. A FEW TRAINING COURSES EXIST WHERE CRIME ANALYSIS OF VARYING DESCRIPTIONS IS INCLUDED AS A 1- OR 2-HOUR SEGMENT OF A PROGRAM HAVING EITHER A GENERAL OR DISTINCTLY DIFFERENT GOAL. ALSO, ELEMENTS OR TECHNIQUES OF CRIME ANALYSIS WERE FOUND AS PORTIONS OF TRAINING COURSES FOR OTHER DISCIPLINES, WHERE SOME OF THE TECHNIQUES ARE COMMON. HOWEVER, NO OFFERING WAS FOUND CURRENTLY AVAILABLE THAT PROVIDED IN-DEPTH TRAINING IN CRIME ANALYSIS, EITHER FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT OR PLANNING AGENCIES. NUMEROUS AGENCIES STATED THAT THEY WERE INVOLVED IN A CRIME ANALYSIS PROGRAM; HOWEVER, ON CLOSE EXAMINATION, IT WAS FOUND THAT FEW CAN BE DESCRIBED AS BEING COMPREHENSIVE OR CURRENT, OR HAVING A SOPHISTICATED AND EFFECTIVE PROGRAM. A LIST OF LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES WITH CRIME ANALYSIS UNITS AND A LIST OF INDIVIDUALS, AGENCIES, AND ASSOCIATIONS CONTACTED BY THE CONSULTANT ARE APPENDED. (AUTHOR ABSTRACT MODIFIED)
