CDP Certificates - October 2018

The Kentucky Law Enforcement Council's Career Development Program is a voluntary program that rewards specialty certificates based on an individual's education, training and experience as a peace officer or telecommunicator. There are a total of 17 professional certificates. The variety of certificates allows a person to individualize his or her course of study, just as someone would if pursuing a specific degree in college.
