The National Advisory Committee

Guiding Police Professional Development

The National Advisory Committee (NAC) brings together policing, public safety, and training experts to guide CPKN’s initiatives. 

Their advice ensures programs stay relevant, innovative, and aligned with evolving needs of Canada’s police and public safety communities. 

From identifying emerging trends to shaping new course topics, reviewing existing programs, and highlighting best practices, the NAC ensures CPKN stays at the forefront.

They also create collaboration opportunities and guide innovation, helping us deliver learning solutions that truly support our Network.
