Accreditation
WILEAG
The Menomonee Falls Police Department is accredited by the Wisconsin Law Enforcement Accreditation Group (WILEAG).
What is accreditation?
Accreditation is the process in which an agency is evaluated on prescribed standards associated with the day to day operations of a law enforcement agency. This is a volunteer process in which agencies subject themselves to outside review of policies, procedures, and practices they have in place.
What does it mean to be accredited?
Accreditation refers to a system of rules and regulations, called "Standards," that an agency is to follow in order to retain the status of being "accredited." Colleges, universities, health care providers and school districts are commonly accredited.
