College of Policing (CoP)

College of Policing is a Executive NDPB sponsored by Home Office. We exist to support police officers, police staff and volunteers to deliver the best service to the public. Only through high quality leadership, consistent standards and continual performance improvement can everyone in policing reach their full potential. Our mission guides our work with individuals, forces and partners towards our vision. The legal basis for the College to set standards in policing is derived from the Anti-social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014.

Regional Remit

CoP operates in England and Wales. Their headquarters are located in West Midlands.
