Re-certification
GENERAL INFORMATION
CLEE Re-Certification General Information: The principal purposes of the Certified Law Enforcement Executive (CLEE) program are the advancement of professional competence and continued professional development. To maintain certification, a CLEE must accumulate professional points and submit a completed Re-certification Application three years after the original date of certification and each re-certification. (The deadline is the third January 1st following the date appearing on the original CLEE certificate or the re-certification notification.)
-The CLEE Director will notify all CLEE graduates each year of re-certification requirements and deadline dates. Professional points for re-certification must be earned during the three-year period following certification or each re-certification.
LIFETIME CLEE DESIGNATION: A Lifetime
CLEE designation may be conferred upon a Certified Law Enforcement Executive
who is in good standing and who is no longer in a law enforcement supervisory
- policy making - CEO position. The Executive shall send a request for
Lifetime CLEE designation in writing to the CLEE Board, who will consider
all applications and related individual circumstances.
(Approved by the CLEE Board, September 2005)
PROFESSIONAL POINTS: The CLEE Board has identified a variety of educational and leadership activities through which a CLEE can accumulate professional points. The Board will continually review professional and educational activities to identify those that in its judgment merit inclusion.
The four dimensions of the Career Index provide the pattern for the re-certification requirements. Within the applicable three-year period, 70 out of a maximum of 140 professional points are required for re-certification. The Re-certification Application provides detailed information about the weighting and scoring of professional points for each of the four dimensions.
Dimension One: Experience (maximum 30 professional points) - Dimension One recognizes increased leadership responsibility since certification or re-certification. It also recognizes continuance as a CEO or, if not the CEO, continuing responsibility in a position as a policy maker or supervisor.
Dimension Two: Formal Education (maximum 35 professional points) - Dimension Two recognizes documented formal education accomplished since certification or re-certification. Formal education includes a degree received or courses successfully completed at an accredited institution.
Dimension Three: Continuing Education (maximum 40 professional points) - Dimension Three recognizes attendance at seminars or workshops designed to develop a CLEE graduate’s skills, knowledge and abilities for providing leadership in law enforcement. The Re-certification Application provides examples of topics and potential sources of seminars or workshops. A CLEE who attends the OACP Chiefs’ In-service and Annual Conference each year will earn 35 points in this dimension.
Dimension Four: Professional Related Experience (maximum 35 professional points) - Dimension Four recognizes a CLEE graduate’s contribution to the profession and service to the community.
