PORTLAND, Maine – Immediate Past President Harry J. Delgado, Ed.S. and the AccredNet Leadership Team are pleased to highlight the speakers being featured at the 2025 AccredNet Conference. These speakers were chosen as part of AccredNet’s continued efforts to showcase national subject matter experts to create opportunities for open dialogue and discussion concerning police accreditation and best practices in the field of law enforcement.
This year’s conference will take place May 14-16 at the Westin Harborview Hotel in Portland, Maine, and will feature keynote speakers from John Guilfoil Public Relations and Lexipol..
John Guilfoil, Principal Owner of John Guilfoil Public Relations, will address the issue of Crisis Management. News and information (and misinformation) move at lightning speed, and the media landscape has evolved. The ability to effectively manage a crisis is more important now than ever.
Mark Anderko, Director of Strategic Alliances at Lexipol, will bring his 28 years of law enforcement experience to speak on The State and Current Landscape of Law Enforcement in the U.S.: Navigating Reform, Risk, and Resilience in the Pursuit of Accreditation Excellence.
In an era marked by heightened scrutiny, evolving legislation, and growing community expectations, understanding The State and Current Landscape of Law Enforcement in the U.S. is critical for agencies seeking to lead with integrity and effectiveness. This session will explore key national trends, policy shifts, and emerging risks that directly impact accreditation standards and public safety operations. Through real-world examples and data-driven insights, attendees will gain a clear picture of how accreditation can serve as a proactive strategy, not just for compliance, but for driving cultural change, increasing accountability, and strengthening public trust.
