How to Set Up a UCR or NIBRS Criminal Data Workstation
TJISS will have educational materials that will equip your organization with the knowledge and ability to set up a reporting workstation for maintaining and sharing criminal statistical data. We include links to each state’s reporting agency, to qualifi ed vendors for records management, and to all the necessary as well as reporting handbooks and data guidelines.
We provide tribal agencies with the proper methods in setting up accounts, enabling them to accurately collect and report criminal statistical data via the Uniform Crime Reporting and National Incident Based reporting systems. We will be providing an in-depth Online Training Tutorial, as well as an accompanying Training Manual, that provides step-by-step instruction on how to maintain criminal records, and how to report criminal statistical data at the State and Federal levels. Training materials are also available in DVD and paper format upon request.
These tutorials and supporting material are not yet available. Contact us here to receive updates when the tutorials are made available.
How to Perform a Technical Self-Assessment
This questionnaire is a basic self-assessment tool that will help your organization better determine its current computer technology strengths and weaknesses. Most of the questions address issues that your organization might want to research in more detail. Using this form can help you better gauge and plan your long term, technological needs. Any questions left blank or unsure are items that your organization might want to consider implementing in the future. This questionnaire can also act as an inventory sheet. By having this information at your fingertips, you’ll be better informed when working with various vendors.
