The St. Johns County Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller’s Office of Inspector General is undergoing an assessment to receive accreditation by the Commission for Florida Law Enforcement Accreditation (CFA). A team of assessors from the CFA will conduct an on-site assessment on March 16 to review the Inspector General’s Office policies, procedures, management, operations, and support services.
As part of the assessment, staff members and the public are invited to offer comments about the Inspector General’s Office to the assessment team by contacting:
Commission for Florida Law Enforcement Accreditation, P.O. Box 1489, Tallahassee, Florida 32302. Email: flaccreditation@fdle.state.fl.us
A copy of the standards manual by which the Inspector General’s Office will be assessed is available on the CFA website at www.flaccreditation.org.
The accreditation program manager for the office is St. Johns County Inspector General Nilsa Arissa. According to Arissa, the assessment team is composed of assessors from similar agencies and will review written materials, interview individuals and visit offices and other areas to observe compliance.
Upon completion of the review by CFA assessors, the assessment team will report back to the commission, which will make the determination on granting accreditation. If approved, the accreditation is valid for three years.
