ANNOTATION: Two tools are described that will help the community corrections field become more efficient—a time study template and a workload matrix. “These tools, hopefully, will move the filed past the debate between caseload size and workload” (p. 2). This publication is divided into six parts: the misunderstood community corrections filed—more than evidence-based practices; framing the debate of workload versus caseload issues—the benefits of a time study template and a workload matrix for agencies, the benefits of time studies, workload studies, and eight barriers to completing tasks; methods-description of the APPA process—workload vs. caseload debate and time for a time study template; results—findings from the time studies in minutes per offenders/month; time study matrix with 17 matrix elements; and discussion.
