MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Memphis Police wants the Memphis community to weigh in on the effectiveness of their law enforcement academy, the department announced Monday.
The ask is part of an annual accreditation process verifying the Memphis Police Academy meets professional standards through the Commission on Accreditation of Law Enforcement Agencies, Inc. (CALEA).
This program requires police agencies like MPD to comply with "state-of-the-art" standards in four basic areas: policy and procedures, administration, operations and support services.
MPD employees and members of the community can offer comments at this link, or by scanning a QR code in Memphis Police's post about the survey below:
Memphis Police said anyone who wants to submit written comments about MPD's Training Academy's ability to comply with standards for accreditation can send them to CALEA at 13575 Heathcote Boulevard, Suite 320, Gainsville, Virginia, 22030.
