IALEP Law Enforcement Planner Certification

The International Association of Law Enforcement Planners (IALEP) provides certification of law enforcement planners at two levels:

• Certified Law Enforcement Planner, and
• Advanced Law Enforcement Planner

Certification has been developed for the following purposes:

• to recognize the professional abilities and accomplishments of individual law enforcement planners;
• to promote and encourage professional development by individuals in the field of law enforcement planning;
• to provide the employers of law enforcement planners a reliable measure of professional competence; and
• to provide employers of law enforcement planners with a basis on which to establish position descriptions.

All of the requirements and standards for both levels of planner certification can be found in the Planner Certification Application and Standards booklet (revised 2008) and can be downloaded in Acrobat (PDF) format or MS Word format.
