CALEA Accredited Agencies:
The Kansas Law Enforcement Accreditation Program (KLEAP) is a standalone official accrediting body, facilitated by the Kansas Law Enforcement Training Center (KLETC) and governed by the Kansas Accreditation Council (KAC). CALEA agencies within the State of Kansas are welcome and encouraged to participate in the KLEAP and will be identified as a DUAL accredited agency.
CALEA accredited agencies seeking dual accredited status must:
- Submit a signed Agency Participation Agreement.
- Provide documentation that proves their accredited status with CALEA, (i.e., last award letter, print screen of the CALEA Database reflecting their agency's status, etc.)
- Upon receipt of the signed Agency Participation Agreement and proof of the agency's current accreditation status with CALEA the KLEAP Program Director 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 Accredited status with KLEAP.
- A framed certificate of DUAL Accredited status with KLEAP will be issued to the agency that runs concurrent with the agency's CALEA accredited status.
- Since the agency's DUAL accredited status with KLEAP is contingent upon the agency's good standing with CALEA, annually the agency must submit a copy of their annual report provided to CALEA to the KLEAP Program Director to confirm the agency's continue compliance with CALEA accreditation standard requirements.
