Abstract

. From the standpoint of a system approach to the methodology of the research of legal phenomena, the theoretical foundations of the formation of highly qualified leading staff of the National Police are considered. The successful formation of a highly qualified police staff reserve requires the introduction of staff planning in the system of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine and the National Police. The purposes of staff planning are determined: formation of police staff taking into account the current and future needs for personnel, the level of professional training of police officers, effective use of the potential of the available staff. The formation of a highly qualified leading staff of the National Police should be carried out based on the creation of a staff reserve. Staff reserve is a group of middle-ranking police officers in territorial bodies, institutions and organizations of the National Police. The group is formed in accordance with the established procedure based on individual selection and objective comprehensive assessment. Police officers who have passed the certification procedure, according to their personal and professional qualities, level of education are able to replace higher positions in the National Police of Ukraine. In order to increase the motivation of police officers to perform their duties (as one of the elements of career growth) successfully and conscientiously, it is advisable to introduce the indicator “rating of official and personal competence of a police officer”. The rating of official and personal competence is an indicator expressed in the quantitative calculation of mastering a set of competencies necessary for the implementation of daily practical activities and further career growth of a police officer. The rating includes professional motivation; general training and professional skills; the level of physiological readiness of the organism associated with the possibility of using physical force, special means and firearms in the performance of official tasks; level of psychological stability.
