Accreditation Public Comment Portal
The Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, Inc. (CALEA) was established in 1979 to assist law enforcement agencies in establishing and maintaining high standards of excellence. The Clemson University Police Department is proud to be a CALEA-accredited agency. As a part of this process, we provide an opportunity for public feedback via the CALEA Public Comment Portal.
The purpose of this public portal is to receive comments regarding our compliance with CALEA standards, engagement in the service community, delivery of public safety services, and overall candidacy for accredited status. These comments can be in the form of commendations or concerns. The overall intent of the accreditation process is to provide our agency with information to support continuous improvement, as well as foster our pursuit of professional excellence.
It is important to know that CALEA is not an investigatory body and subsequently the public portal should not be used to submit information for such purposes. Additionally, there will be no response other than acknowledgement to submissions; however, the information will be considered in context to its relevancy to compliance with standards and the tenets of CALEA® Accreditation.
Standard titles may be viewed on the CALEA website: calea.org
The level of accreditation the Clemson University Police Department participates in include only those applicable standards from CALEA Tier 1 Law Enforcement Accreditation program. Questions related to the accreditation process may be directed to the agency’s Accreditation Manager.
