Accreditation Manager Certification Program
A four-week live online certification for law enforcement accreditation managers: standards, proofs of compliance and assessments, step by step.
About this class
Accreditation can feel daunting. Each program has its own standards, but the process is similar across CALEA, IACLEA, state accreditation, PREA, ACA and others. This four-week program gives you a clear understanding of your role as an Accreditation Manager and everything that comes with it.
We break the process into manageable pieces and give you a systematic approach to achieving and keeping accreditation, with tips from our own experience across programs.
Attendees take part in course discussions, including a weekly forum question, and complete a comprehensive exam to earn a certificate.
