About

The Policing Network has its own website: http://bscpolicingnetwork.wordpress.com

Latest blog:

Inappropriate Adults? The potential risks arising from the revised Codes of Practice, by Vicky Thirlaway.

The core aims of the Policing Network are to:

  • advance understanding of policing studies;
  • provide an arena for information exchange, critical analysis and debate across the research, policy and practice communities – nationally and internationally.

To achieve these aims the Network will engage in activities that include:

  • organising and hosting conferences, seminars and symposia;
  • disseminating information through its JISCmail list and via scholarly publications;
  • responding to policy consultations and/or requests for information.

Evidence-Based Policing – Research Showcase 2017

The British Society of Criminology Policing Network and the College of Policing hosted another Research Showcase as part of the College’s High Potential Development Scheme (a five-year training programme designed to equip middle-rank officers for the senior ranks).  In the showcase, policing scholars had the opportunity to present their empirical research directly to approximately 65 serving officers (and fellow academics).  The session took place at the College of Policing site in Ryton, Coventry.  It included lunch, a two hour ‘walkabout session’ in which officers asked questions at each presenter’s stand, and coffee.

Evidence-Based Policing – Research Showcase 2016

Following the success of the May 2015 event, The British Society of Criminology Policing Network and the College of Policing hosted another research showcase (11 May 2016) as part of the High Potential Development Scheme (a five-year training programme designed to equip middle-rank officers for the senior ranks).  In the showcase, policing scholars had the opportunity to present their empirical research directly to approximately 50 serving officers (and fellow academics), in the process contributing to the evidence-based policing agenda.  The session took place at the College of Policing site in Sunningdale Park.  It included lunch, a two hour ‘walkabout session’ in which officers could ask questions at each presenter’s stand, and coffee.
