Recorded
Thursday, October 15, 2026 · 12:00 p.m.
ABOUT THIS WEBINAR
Make better decisions by turning the information your agency already collects into timely, useful insights that improve decision-making and outcomes.
In this webinar, you will learn how analytics and artificial intelligence can help your agency identify cases that need attention, reduce time spent reviewing information, evaluate performance and outcomes, and direct limited resources where they can have the greatest impact.
You will see how information from multiple sources can support a supervision workflow, from identifying a potential need through officer review and action. The discussion will also address the safeguards your agency needs to use these tools responsibly, including reliable data, transparency, bias review, privacy protections, auditability, and clearly defined human oversight.
You will leave with a practical framework to help your agency:
• Select a meaningful operational use case
• Assess the readiness of your data and processes
• Define where professional judgment and human approval are required
• Measure how the technology improves supervision practices and outcomes
Whether your agency is beginning to explore analytics and AI or refining its current approach, this session will help you effectively pair technology resources with the daily work of officers and the outcomes your agency plans to achieve.
