The duties and responsibilities of the police are very complex, from law enforcement and security to public services (Bayley, 2. In carrying out its duties, the police must be qualified and competent, supported by human resources. Therefore, human resource management in the police is a very crucial aspect to pay attention to. Journal Pendidikan Tambusai ISSN: 2614-6754 . ISSN: 2614-3097. Halaman 17155-17161 Volume 6 Nomor 3 Tahun 2022 Education and training are essential in developing professional and competent police human resources. Through education, members of the police force can access the latest knowledge and learn new methods in law enforcement, security, and public service (Armstrong & Taylor, 2. In addition, education also helps members of the police to develop analytical, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills, which are needed in dealing with increasingly complex security challenges (Cordner, 2. To achieve this goal, the police education system must integrate various aspects, such as a relevant curriculum, effective learning methods, and adequate facilities and infrastructure. In addition, the education system also needs to consider psychological aspects and the welfare of members of the police so that they can perform optimally in carrying out their duties and responsibilities (Brown, 2. Education is one of the main factors that play a role in improving the quality and competence of human resources (Cordner, 2. In the context of the police, a good education will equip members of the police with the knowledge, skills, and attitudes needed to carry out their duties and responsibilities effectively and efficiently. As an institution that has a strategic role in creating order and security, the police need to continue to improve their education system in order to produce Human Resources that are reliable and adaptive to increasingly complex security challenges. However, even though education has an essential role in improving the quality of police Human Resources, some challenges must be faced in its implementation. One of the main challenges is the need for more funds to be allocated to the police education system, making it difficult to build adequate educational infrastructure and facilities (Zhao & Thurman, 2. In addition, there are also obstacles in developing a curriculum relevant to field needs and the difficulty of precisely identifying training needs (Stoll & Greene, 2. Another challenge faced is in terms of increasing the welfare of members of the police. Problems such as work overload, lack of health facilities, and high levels of stress can affect the performance of police officers and their ability to attend education and training (Burke & Cooper, 2. Therefore, there is a need for concrete action from the government to improve welfare and health facilities for members of the police so that they can participate in education and training optimally. On the other hand, the success of the police education system also depends on the support and commitment of the police leadership and related stakeholders, such as the government, community, and educational institutions. With strong support and commitment, the police education system can continue to be developed and improved to produce quality police human resources capable of facing increasingly complex security challenges. Changes in the strategic environment, such as technological developments, terrorism, and transnational crime, require the police to adapt, develop strategies, and implement appropriate education. Therefore, it is essential to examine the role of education in improving the quality and competence of human resources in the police and strategies and implementations that can be carried out within the police education system to produce human resources capable of facing increasingly complex security challenges. Based on the description above, this study tries to answer . What is the role of education in improving the quality and competence of human resources in the police in the context of effective and efficient management? Moreover, . What strategies and implementations can be implemented in the police education system to produce quality human resources capable of facing increasingly complex security challenges?
