How New Berlin PD got reaccredited in under six months
Reaccreditation is often left until the eleventh-hour, causing agencies to frantically prepare for their onsite. For the New Berlin PD in Wisconsin, the last-minute scramble was compounded by 1) the appointment of a new chief and 2) having no assigned accreditation manager until less than a year out from their WILEAG onsite assessment.
