Law Enforcement Accreditation
In 1993, UAPD became one of only five university police departments in the nation to receive National Accreditation and was the 251st law enforcement agency in the United States and Canada to receive this distinction through the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, Inc. In August 1996, UAPD was the first department to receive reaccreditation within a three year period. Since then, UAPD has been reaccredited three more times. In December 2005, CALEA assessors revisited UAPD for a 3-day onsite evaluation of policies and procedures. In July 2006, UAPD was accredited at the CALEA conference in Lexington, KY. Law enforcement accreditation means that UAPD's operations, management and procedures conform to nationally recognized standards in law enforcement and is considered one of the best law enforcement agencies, out of approximately 17,000 in the nation.
