(CALEA). <br />Baci�round: The Roseville Police Department was first accredited by <br />CALEA on November 23, 1996. CALEA requires that agencies be reviewed <br />regularly for compliance of standards and then be revisited by assessors every <br />three years to determine if a department is meeting requirements to be <br />Reaccredited. On November 20,1999, the Roseville Police Department was <br />Reaccredited in Atlanta, Georgia. Roseville, remains one of just three agencies to <br />be accredited in the State of Minnesota. <br />By meeting these National Standards we once again remain in the top 3% of <br />all Law Enforcement Agencies across the country. There are approximately <br />14,000 local, state and federal law enforcement agencies in the United States and <br />Canada. Approximately 400 of the 14,000 agencies are currently nationally <br />certified. <br />
