Reporting in the Penitentiary System
Protocols and reports are the most important instrument for internal documentation and external reporting in the penitentiary system. As they may be submitted to court, they are the basis for important decisions and must meet high standards regarding format, content, and language. At the same time, such reports must be written by specialists themselves. We support institutions in securing the quality of their reporting with analyses, consulting, discreet writing support, as well as team training.
Assessment
Reports in the penitentiary system are particularly challenging, as they often describe sensitive content drawn from life that must be described in accurate jargon. Given the fact that these reports may be submitted to court, it is important to keep different addressees in mind. We analyze protocols and reports regarding content, structure, and the quality of language regarding the attainment of goals, and we identify how to optimize the reporting.
Quality Management
Reporting in the penitentiary system must meet high standards regarding format, content, and language. This comes in addition to everyday challenges faced by each individual employee. Accordingly, writing accurate reports challenges institutions in the penitentiary system. We spot weaknesses and elaborate solutions for our clients to use resources wisely and improve the quality of their reports as well as employee satisfaction. If needed, we write customized manuals and templates.
Report Writing and Editing
When workload increases or the quality of the existing reports doesn’t meet official standards, we help with customized support. In particular, we can take care of writing specific reports, edit existing reports, or write pertinent executive summaries for important subsequent projects or decisions.
In-House Workshops in the Penitentiary System
Writing good reports is rarely part of the training which employees of the penitentiary system receive. In addition, institutions usually rely on staff that is highly diverse. We know these challenges and help clients ensure their teams write accurate reports. We are particularly experienced with training teams of different educational backgrounds. The goal of our workshops is to improve the quality of reports and increase the efficiency and satisfaction of employees.
