NUCPS Regional Chapters
NUCPS Regional Chapters are your opportunity to network and learn with fellow professionals in your region! Explore new and innovative avenues for continuing professional growth, take advantage of chapter-based seminars and workshops, network, and socialize with course graduates from different agencies and organizations.
We welcome graduates of any and all NUCPS courses to Regional Chapters! Whether you successfully completed the School of Police Staff & Command, other Management & Leadership programs, a Crash & Reconstruction course, Traffic Engineering, Forensic courses, or the NUCPS Police Motorcycle Instructor Program, then you are eligible to join a chapter. In addition to sworn officers, we also encourage retirees and those employed in the private sector to join their local chapter.
