Sunday, June 30, 2024
8:00 AM - 9:30 AM
Session Type: Workshop
The proliferation of the availability of mobile technologies provides multiple opportunities for agencies to evaluate policy as it relates to their utilization of technology in supervision procedures. Combining technology advancements with ongoing research supports a multitude of supervision strategies that improve officer efficiency and client outcomes. This session will focus on the advantages of the use of remote reporting technology from representatives of three states. Agencies in these states moved to change policy to embrace research-based approaches to remote supervision and fieldwork. This dynamic panel will provide experiences from an administrative policy and implementation perspective to experiences from officers in the field. You will also learn about their “why” for believing this is a step forward in providing appropriate levels of supervision for those on their caseloads.
