General Information
The Peace Officer Certification Information System (POCIS)
was established to reduce the interstate rehiring of law enforcement officers decertified for misconduct by U.S. Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST) Boards and Commissions. This system provides general information regarding state policies and guidlines as well as access to the searchable National Decertification Index (NDI) by approved law enforcement hiring entities.

The NDI currently maintains
11342 records of decertifications by
29 participating agencies.
