Utah Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST) Academy Implements Acadis® Compliance Management
Bloomington, IN, September 8, 2009
Envisage Technologies Corporation announced today that it received a contract amendment with the Utah POST Academy to provide software and professional services to implement training compliance state-wide. The Acadis® Compliance module will support user-defined recertification and training rules and allow POST staff to monitor compliance with training and certification policies in real-time.
Acadis Compliance Management allows POST staff to track candidates for qualifications/certifications against defined (re)certification and job task criteria. The system automates the time-consuming process of managing application information and tracking complex recertification requirements. In addition, the software ensures that the workforce fulfills all (re)certification requirements and can be used to plan appropriate training events for groups of personnel with expiring certifications.
The addition of Acadis Compliance Management will allow the POST to access summary training information for each police agency and ensure training policies are being met and essential certifications remain current.
“The Acadis Readiness Suite and Portal infrastructure allows us to provide secure, distributed data collection from our constituent agencies across Utah,” stated John Jacobs, Training Manager of the Utah POST Academy. “The Compliance Management module now allows us to match collected training records to our requirements and ensure compliance by our officers.”
“Acadis Compliance Management is a critical component of the Readiness Suite. It significantly reduces compliance costs for high-risk training organizations,” said Cory Myers, Vice President of Homeland Security Solutions for Envisage. “Most organizations want to reduce paperwork and provide police agencies easy-to-use tools to report their mandated training activities securely via the web. The Acadis Portal allows departments to view current training and certification records for their staff and easily report mandatory in-service training as it occurs. In this way, the POST can ensure that all officers across the State are meeting their compliance requirements.”
