Recognizing that the success of the accreditation process is dependent upon the skills of the Accreditation Manager, this online course was developed specifically for the CALEA Accreditation Manager. It is ideal for training new accreditation managers or as a refresher for existing staff. The CALEA Accreditation Manager course introduces the student to history and purpose of CALEA, the resources available to assist agencies during the accreditation process, and the use of agency written directives and proofs-of-compliance.

  2. Component departments of public safety agencies that provide communications services.
  3. Private agencies with mandated public safety communications responsibilities, whose eligibility is determined on a case-by-case basis by the CALEA Commission.
