The ILEA has built partnerships with the following universities to gain college credit and program certificates that are valuable in themselves and that also will count toward to further college credentials.

Grand Canyon University:  In November of 2009, the ILEA established a memorandum of understanding with Grand Canyon University.  As a result, course participants who successfully complete specific programs at ILEA will now be able to apply for undergraduate or graduate credit (depending on the program) through the Ken Blanchard College of Business at GCU. These credits can also be applied to further undergraduate and graduate credentials at GCU. Grand Canyon University is fully-accredited by the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools and is located in Phoenix, AZ.  Further details concerning this college credit articulation are available by clicking here.

University of Texas at Arlington: In April of 2008, the ILEA and the Department of Criminology and Criminal Justice at the University of Texas at Arlington established a memorandum of understanding that gave rise to the formulation of a collaborative Certificate in Law Enforcement Administration. Under the requirements set for this certificate participants who have completed four courses offered by the ILEA and five more online courses offered by the Department of CRCJ at UTA can obtain this certificate which will count toward a bachelor’s degree in CRCJ at UTA. Further details concerning this program are available by clicking here.

University of North Texas: Upon successful completion of the entire Management College at the ILEA, participants may apply for up to nine graduate credit hours which will constitute a Graduate Certificate in Police Management from UNT.
