Scenario 1

You are a Human Resources Manager of an expanding technology company consisting of 170 employees that develops and distributes small electronic devices. Over the past two (2) years, a research group formed, designed, and built prototypes of small remote surveillance cameras used for security. Recently, your company won a contract to build and provide these remote surveillance cameras to various government agencies. The contract will begin with your company supplying these cameras to agencies within your home state. If all orders are fulfilled sufficiently, the contract will be expanded to supplying agencies outside of your home state.

For the immediate future, you will need to secure a larger facility and hire more staff to sustain the first part of the contract. This staff will consist of ten (10) Assembly Technicians, one (1) Certified Quality Control Engineer, one (1) Contract Administrator, and one (1) Office Support Paraprofessional. Meanwhile, there is a contract clause requiring that you provide a staffing plan in order to ensure future product deliveries and sustain the possible future growth.

Using the scenario from Assignment 1, write a six to seven (6-7) page paper in which you:

Identify three (3) job requirements (e.g., needed certifications, previous work experience, external influences, etc.) that could apply to your chosen scenario. Determine two (2) ways these requirements could impact staffing at your organization.

Next, analyze the effect of the five (5) identified selection criteria on long-term employee retention and preservation of organizational knowledge. Justify your response.
Suggest two (2) assessment methods that you could employ to select new employees for your organization and then analyze the validity and reliability of each method in regards to the job your organization is offering.

Intentionally deceiving in ”All The King’s men”

August 7, 2020 Leave a comment English and Literature, MLA

Many works of literature contain a character who intentionally deceives others. The characters dishonesty may
be intended either to help or to hurt. Such a character, for example, may choose to mislead others for personal safety,
to spare someones feelings, or to carry out a crime. Choose a novel or play in which a character deceives others.
Then, in a well-written essay, analyze the motives for that characters deception and discuss how the deception
contributes to the meaning of the work as a whole.

The character I’m using is Huey Long in “All the King’s men”

Preparedness, Response, and Recovery

August 7, 2020 Leave a comment APA (edition "APA 6"), Other

Preparedness, Response, and Recovery

Over the last couple years it seems the number and severity of natural disasters has markedly increased. Since the low point of the response to Hurricane Katrina and the subsequent legislation to fix the federal response to disasters, is the Department of Homeland Security doing better in its coordinated responses? Is the current National Response Framework working? How do we balance the response and the need for controlling budget costs? In this assignment select one national level response to a hurricane, wild fire, or other natural hazard to evaluate the preparedness, response, and recovery efforts to the event. Your response should be written from a local, state, or federal perspective. Or you may examine the response from the perspective of a not-for-profit such as the International Red Cross of the Salvation Army.

To begin your research for this assignment, go to the Ashford University Library and conduct a search with the keywords Federal Response to Disasters. It is recommended that you do not use quotation marks for this search.
In your paper,
    Summarize the natural disaster.
    Evaluate the response from a local, state, or federal perspective.
    Identify the core issues that delayed or hindered the response.
    Identify what went right with the disaster response.
    Analyze the current Department of Homeland Security processes and procedures to determine their effectiveness for similar future disasters.
The Preparation, Response, and Recovery paper
    Must be two to three double-spaced pages in length (not including title and references pages) and formatted according to.
    Must use at least two scholarly sources in addition to the course text.
o    The Scholarly, Peer Reviewed, and Other Credible Sources (Links to an external site.) table offers additional guidance on appropriate source types.
    Must document all sources in APA style

DISCUSSION POST#1

Cybersecurity / Science Technology

It seems that every day we hear of another cyber-attack on the United States. Some of these attacks are targeting databases of corporations, others are against the government or our critical infrastructure, some are in retaliation and are designed to be destructive, and others are designed to hold information or computers hostage until people or corporations pay ransom to get control of their computers and get their information back. Some of these attacks are by States and others by criminal elements. All of these come under the purview of the Department of Homeland Security.

Prior to posting your initial post go to the Ashford University Library to conduct your initial research. Identify a credible source (this is a step down from a scholarly source and includes editorials from reputable news sources and TV documentaries). Use the Scholarly, Peer Reviewed, and Other Credible Sources (Links to an external site.) document for guidance. Identify issues that are applicable to cyber security. Please ensure your references are less than 5 years old. Then go to the Department of Homeland Security website to review the Safeguard and Secure Cyberspace mission.
As you analyze the types of cyber-attacks, current science and technology, and the mission of the Department of Homeland Security do you believe the Department of Homeland Security is up to the task of defending and securing the nations cyberspace? Does the Department of Homeland Security have the tools, tactics, and techniques available to defend and secure the cyberspace? Your initial post must be a minimum of 300 words in length. Support your claims with in-text citations and provide an APA reference list.

DISCUSSION POST 2

Future of Homeland Security

The Department of Homeland Security and state offices of homeland security were created in large scale after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. Homeland security and emergency response has continued to evolve. New threats from Mexican drug cartels, cyber-attacks, lone-wolf terrorist attacks and new threats to aviation security have expanded the role and scope of homeland security organizations and personnel.
Prior to beginning on this forum review the latest DHS 2014 Quadrennial Homeland Security Review . Based on your collective study in Homeland Security and Emergency Management, identify two or three changes or trends you believe will occur in the Homeland Security and Emergency Response discipline in the next ten years. Identify those threats and sub-disciplines that will become more important between now and the next 10 years. What will be the new homeland security and emergency management challenges the United States will face in the next 10 years?

Your initial post should be at least 300 words in length. Support your claims with examples from required material(s) and/or other scholarly resources, and properly cite any references. Use the Scholarly, Peer Reviewed, and Other Credible Sources (Links to an external site.) document for guidance. Use APA style.
