Student 1 Response to Question 5

Final Paper

I would like to do an Audit on the Contra Costa County Sheriffs office officer professionalism when it relates to the off duty social media accounts. I find that this will be a solid audit based on how prevalent social media is with most employees. I think that many social media policies often are outdated due to social media progressing faster then policy can keep up with them.

Student 2 Response to Question 5

Final paper area for audit.

The topic which I am looking at for an audit would be auditing a local university campus police’s policies and procedures for responding to an active shooter on campus. Specifically, Salem State University has its own police department and there have been a couple of active-shooter incidents over the past few years. The challenge of the audit would most likely be determining if those internal policies are being followed and are in compliance with standards established by the Massachusetts University system’s standards and expectations. The benefit of such an audit is that it could determine the preparedness of the university’s campus police should an active shooter incident occur again.

For my response to Question 5:

Final paper area for audit (this is the header)

The topic I would like to conduct an audit is the Department Homeland Security (DHS) guards located at the Phillip Burton Federal Building downtown San Francisco where I work. I would like to know their protocol in responding to an active shooter. I want to know what type of trainer that have or if they are really trained.

Note: this is my topic so you can say something to this. Now you have an ideal and examples given
