CALEA Agencies:

While Kansas Law Enforcement Accreditation Program (KLEAP) is a standalone accrediting body, facilitated by the Kansas Law Enforcement Training Center (KLETC), CALEA agencies within the State of Kansas are welcome to participate in the KLEAP and will be identified as a DUAL accredited agency.

CALEA agencies must submit a signed Agency Participation Agreement. Upon receipt of the signed Agency Participation Agreement and proof of the agency's current accreditation status with CALEA the KLEAP Manager will invoice the agency for their $250 annual fee. The Kansas Accreditation Council (KAC) will vote, at the next regular meeting, to award the agency a DUAL Accreditation KLEAP Certificate.

The Chief Law Enforcement Officer (CLEO) is required to ensure that an Annual Report of Compliance is filed with the KLEAP Manager each year to maintain their agency's current dual accredited status. The Annual Report of Compliance, available on the KLEAP Website, should be completed annually on the anniversary date of the agency's original accreditation status with CALEA. See the Annual Report of Compliance Report - Section B for additional reporting directions.
