The Quinsigamond Community College Police Department is pleased to welcome members of the Massachusetts Police Accreditation Commission to our department within the next 2 weeks. This assessment is part of the voluntary process to achieve state accreditation, a respected recognition of professional excellence in law enforcement. The assessment team will verify that our Department meets the Commission’s established standards.

A team of assessors will be on-site from Tuesday, June 9 through Thursday, June 11, 2026, conducting a three-day evaluation.

During the assessment, the team will review our policies, facilities, and equipment. We are required to demonstrate compliance with all mandatory standards, as well as a percentage of optional standards based on the size of our agency.

As part of the process, the public is invited to provide comments to the Commission regarding the Department as they relate to accreditation standards.

Written comments can be submitted to: Massachusetts Police Accreditation Commission, 110 Haverhill Road, Bldg. C – Suite 397, Amesbury, MA 01913.

Congratulations to Sgt. Litchfield for completing this leadership course and obtaining his Trilogy Award.

The Trilogy series is built on three core pillars. Each course is typically a weeklong program open to both sworn and professional staff, and they can generally be taken in any order:

Supervisor Leadership Institute (SLI): A foundational course geared toward first-line supervisors and aspiring leaders. It focuses on core leadership concepts, accountability, emotional intelligence, and building trust.

Command Leadership Institute (CLI): Designed for mid-level managers and command staff. This program focuses on tactical decision-making, team building, implicit bias awareness, and conflict management.

Executive Leadership Institute (ELI): Geared toward top-level management and executives. This course delves into organizational effectiveness, navigating change, and high-level strategic planning.
