Police Chief Everidge Receives Georgia Chiefs Association Graduation Certificate

Training Coordinator Monica Duran presented Police Chief Everidge with the Georgia Chiefs Association Graduation Certificate last month.


The chief executive training course is a required 60 hour training program for all persons who have been designated as a department head of any state or local law enforcement agency in Georgia.   

Perry Police Department Recognized for Completion of Georgia Law Enforcement Certification Program

The Perry Police Department was recognized by the Georgia Association of Chiefs of Police for their dedication to service to the Georgia Law Enforcement Certification Program.


The certification status represents a significant professional achievement for a law enforcement agency. It acknowledges the implementation of policies and procedures are conceptually sound and operationally effective.


The review is conducted every three years by outside assessors. During December of 2022, the assessors inspected the various areas within the Perry Police Department including training, use of force, evidence storage, pursuits, and safe operation of vehicles.


It is the role of the Georgia Law Enforcement Certification Program to establish standards promoting professionalism in law enforcement, oversee the State Certification process, and award certification status to Georgia Law Enforcement agencies that meet the established standards.
