Pilot accreditation of CEPOL courses with Polish WSB Merito Universities

The 19th of May marks an important milestone for the EU Agency for Law Enforcement Training (CEPOL), as its formal cooperation with the network of WSB Merito Universities in Poland kicked off with the signature of a Service Level Agreement (SLA) with WSB Merito University in Wrocław. This initiative is part of CEPOL’s broader efforts to further professionalise and promote the mutual recognition of law enforcement training at EU level, thus contributing to the development of a common EU law enforcement culture, along the lines of the Protect EU Internal Security Strategy.
The agreement refers to the pilot recognition of the learning outcomes of two training activities delivered by the CEPOL’s Knowledge Centres (CKCs), in line with Quality Assessment procedures used by WSB Merito, accrediting them with micro-credentials.
The two activities taking part in this pilot endeavour are: ‘Schengen evaluation – Internal security Measures’ (portfolio of CEPOL Knowledge Centre on Law Enforcement Cooperation, Information Exchange and Interoperability) and ‘Protection of Public Spaces, Critical Infrastructures and Cyber-Systems’ (portfolio of CEPOL Knowledge Centre on Counter-Terrorism).
The learning outcomes from these two CEPOL courses will be explicitly accepted in the curricula of the selected study programmes offered by WSB Merito University in Opole. Credits will be allocated in line with the European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS). Participants who successfully complete each course will receive one ECTS credit which will then be accredited within the framework of the selected bachelor’s and master’s degree programmes in the field of Administration and Internal Security.
