Bureau of Professional Standards

The Bureau of Professional Standards is charged with the responsibility to vigorously and thoroughly investigate alleged misconduct within the CCSD Police Department. The unit is also responsible for department personnel investigations and those investigations requested by the Clark County School District.

The Bureau of Professional Standards serves as the coordinating authority for all complaints within the Clark County School District Police Department.
Initially, all received complaints are reviewed by the office of the Chief of Police. Complaints alleging minor misconduct are referred to the supervisor of the accused employee. More serious allegations are investigated by the Bureau of Professional Standards.

The Bureau of Professional Standards is strictly an investigative unit; which is used to determine the facts of the case and not the truthfulness of the complaint. That determination is left to the accused employee’s supervisor and the Chief of Police. The Bureaus goal is to insure a fair and expeditious investigation in accordance with local, state, and federal laws and with CCSDPD department policies.

The responsibilities of this Bureau are to receive and record complaints, evaluate said assignment, conduct an impartial investigation, make an unbiased disposition, and suggest corrective methods when misconduct has been substantiated.
