PSL 330: HR MANAGEMENT & LEADERSHIP

This course examines the personnel practices which are common to most public safety agencies. Included among these topics are recruitment, training, retention, motivation and evaluation of personnel. This course also examines the HR issues that are unique to different public safety agencies and explores ways to effectively integrate these differences into a more efficient system. To minimize the potential conflict that might arise from the integration of differing HR systems the course will also focus on the nature of organizational conflict, the development of strategies to minimize conflict and identifying solutions to disputes that are satisfactory to the parties involved. This course requires an in-person residency and approval of the Director of the Public Safety Institute.
