ABC Listen (Australia) 10/3/2025 Audio, News Policing and Corrections in the Classroom: Criminal Justice Students’ Perceptions of Course Material and Career Attractiveness Criminal justice is deeply connected to society, with policing and corrections under much recent global scrutiny. Teaching complex subjects is common, but criminal justice classes are unquietly challenging. Students seeking policing or corrections careers share classrooms with skeptics, complicating rapport and curriculum design. This research utilizes surveys from criminal justice students to explore their interest and perspectives regarding policing and corrections topics. It identifies the most appealing subjects in these areas, perceptions of fairness, and students’ preferred career choices. Students expressed a strong interest in learning about policing and corrections topics, particularly the lived experiences of practitioners and justice-involved individuals. Overall, respondents felt these topics were presented and discussed fairly in the classroom. While students generally viewed policing careers as more desirable than those in corrections, many expressed significant interest in careers working with juveniles. Pedagogical implications, including a variety of high impact practices, are discussed.

Placement on the chronic offender list was based on criteria that were demonstrably predictive of gun offending. Through custom notifications, identified offenders were advised that they were subject to intensified enforcement attention and were offered assistance in accessing services. Partner agencies’ commitment to the strategy was subject to collective review in periodic accountability meetings. We documented strategy implementation over the initial 3.5 years of the initiative by comparing pre- and post-CORE enforcement outputs for CORE offenders against those of a non-equivalent control group. We estimated the preventive impacts of the strategy, finding evidence of individual-level deterrence, in the form of reduced incidence of victimization, among CORE probationers and parolees but not at a statistically significant level among other CORE offenders. Justice Evaluation Journal 10/3/2025 Research article A New Policing Vision for Canada: Modernizing the RCMP CANADA: The safety and security of Canadians is one of the core responsibilities of the Government of Canada. For almost all of its history, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) has been at the forefront of Canada’s efforts to protect its communities, and the distinctive red serge uniform and wide-brimmed Stetsons are icons of Canada, recognizable worldwide. A highly capable and professional policing organization, the RCMP represents Canadian values of service, integrity and respect for the rule of law. As our national police force from coast-to-coast-to-coast, we rely on the RCMP to protect Canada’s borders, defend our national security, manage highly specialized fields like DNA and forensics, protect dignitaries, and deliver effective and efficient front line policing services to eight Provinces and three Territories across 700 detachments, and over 600 Indigenous communities. The RCMP’s extensive range of responsibilities has maintained law and order across Canada for generations. But threats to Canada are rapidly evolving, and demand a targeted response. The digital age and expansion of foreign actor threats challenge traditional policing models and approaches to law enforcement. Canadians are affected daily by growing and complex threats and criminal activities that increasingly extend beyond our borders but have devasting impacts on society, such as the role of organized crime in the spread of fentanyl. Important critical infrastructure is regularly and systematically targeted by complex cyber-attacks, stealing data and affecting the delivery of services that Canadians rely on. We’re witnessing advances in technology that have facilitated more sophisticated methods of committing and concealing these crimes, from using encrypted communications for illegal transactions to employing high tech tools for vehicle theft. And we are now seeing RCMP resources pushed to do more to secure our borders. Canadians expect to rely on a modern, focused, highly specialized policing function in a rapidly changing world. After reflecting on the challenges and evolution required, the Government is setting out a new vision to support an effective approach to policing for Canadians.
