Call for practice form – safer resolution

Call for practice form

This form should be used to summarise your practice. Practice examples must be based on an implemented practice and should include a learning outcome. Your practice example could be:

  • an intervention
  • a policing or partnership initiative
  • a problem solving technique that has been applied to a local policing issue
  • a summary of local practice
  • a project
  • an evaluation summary of an established policing method
  • a training course of continuing professional development initiative.

Your practice example should focus on these areas of managing a conflict situation:

  • resolving conflict without the use of force
  • developing communication skills
  • de-escalation tactics
  • conflict management
  • de-escalation/communication training.

The example should NOT contain practices that include use of force or ‘hands on’ techniques, as these are outside the scope of this call.

Your practice example will:

  • help build on the knowledge of policing within the safer resolution area of policing
  • support the development of evidence-based authorised professional practice.

Please email your completed submission to , along with any other related documents you may wish to share. If you have any questions please contact:
