The Stafford County Sheriff's Office Succession Training Program - Phase Two

The Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant Program (JAG) allows states and units of local government, including tribes, to support a broad range of activities to prevent and control crime based on their own state and local needs and conditions. Grant funds can be used for state and local initiatives, technical assistance, training, personnel, equipment, supplies, contractual support, and information systems for criminal justice, including for any one or more of the following purpose areas: 1) law enforcement programs; 2) prosecution and court programs; 3) prevention and education programs; 4) corrections and community corrections programs; 5) drug treatment and enforcement programs; 6) planning, evaluation, and technology improvement programs; and 7) crime victim and witness programs (other than compensation).

The County of Stafford will support Stafford County Virginia Sheriff's Office to continue the implementation of "The Stafford County Sheriff's Office Succession Training Program." The primary goal of the program is to establish a long term Succession Training Program as part of the agency's Career Development Program. Staff will progress through the career development steps and receive training and education that is consistent with the next step in the development process. The primary goal of the program is to establish a line of succession that will provide qualified personnel opportunities for advancement within the Sheriff's Office as a senior supervisor, manager or administrator.
