Justice sector employers are building a better criminal justice and community safety landscape, creating a highly-skilled, effective and strategic workforce to improve public trust.

Justice
In today’s world, the public are demanding change more than ever before. From the way communities need protective and preventative policing, to the support needed to rehabilitate detainees. This brings new challenges and demands for justice sector employers – including police authorities. Only through a skilled and effective workforce can crime prevention and rehabilitation be improved by justice organisations, meeting the needs of the communities they serve.
At Skills for Justice, we help police forces and prison and probation services, both locally and nationally, to adopt skills and training programmes and create new ways of working.
Our aim is to work with government bodies and services to achieve better outcomes for the public and better experiences for the workforce. Our workforce development training helps justice sector employers to function effectively, improve apprenticeship programmes, find ways to invest in learning and development, recruit and retain skilled staff and predict future workforce challenges.
