A team of assessors from the Commission for Florida Law Enforcement Accreditation (CFA) will arrive October 27, 2021 to examine all aspects of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement’s (FDLE) policies and procedures, management, operations and support services.
FDLE must comply with numerous standards in order to receive accredited status. Many of the standards are critical to life, health and safety issues, and include best practices. Accreditation is a voluntary process.
As part of the assessment, agency members and the general public are invited to offer comments to the assessment team. A copy of the standards manual is available on the CFA website at www.flaccreditation.org under the standards tab.
Questions or comments can be made in writing or via email.

The assessors will review written materials, interview individuals and visit offices and other areas where compliance can be observed.
Once the commission’s assessors complete their review of the agency, they report to the full commission, which then determines if the agency receives reaccredited status. FDLE’s accreditation is valid for three years.
