Brown Deer Police
Department Receives
WILEAG Accreditation
During the recent 2016 Wisconsin Police Leadership Foundation
Mid-Winter Training Conference, the Brown Deer Police Department
and its accreditation managers were recognized as being WILEAG
Accredited by the Wisconsin Law Enforcement Accreditation
Group (WILEAG). WILEAG is a group that promotes excellence in
law enforcement through departments participating in a voluntary
law enforcement agency accreditation program. Accredited
agencies demonstrate compliance with applicable standards
covering all aspects of law enforcement administration and
operations.
The Brown Deer Police Department was first accredited in
2009 with two subsequent successful reaccreditation on-site
assessments, the most recent in 2015. Brown Deer is one of 26
agencies in the State of Wisconsin that has achieved accreditation
in this voluntary program that requires compliance with all 226
applicable standards, meeting the requirements set forth by the
Wisconsin Law Enforcement Accreditation Group (WILEAG).
Although all members of the police department are involved in
this process, Lieutenant Lisa Kumbier and Sergeant Amy Koeppel
were assigned as the department’s WILEAG accreditation
managers. They were instrumental in preparing all the documentation
and arranging all the interactions between assessors and officers.
The final report of the most recent WILEAG assessment stated:
“The On-Site could not have gone as smoothly as it did without
the level of cooperation the assessors received from the staff of
the Brown Deer Police Department. Lieutenant Kumbier and
Sergeant Koeppel devoted a significant amount of their time to
answer questions, clarify compliance issues, modify written
directives, and provide any other assistance that was needed.
It was apparent that the entire Department was fully supportive of
the accreditation process.”
Congratulations to our highly dedicated Brown Deer Police
Department on their accreditation!
