Who maintains the daily record of attendance at the Academy?

The daily record of attendance at the Academy is maintained by the Delaware State Police Academy Staff, specifically the Training Academy Coordinators (TACs). This responsibility is crucial for several reasons. First, accurate attendance tracking is essential for administrative purposes, such as ensuring compliance with training requirements and managing resource allocation effectively. The staff members are trained and designated to oversee this process, allowing for consistency and reliability in record-keeping.

Maintaining attendance records through designated staff members ensures that there is a centralized and organized approach to managing recruit data. This helps in monitoring individual progress, as well as overall Academy statistics. It also relieves instructors and recruits from the burden of self-reporting attendance, which can lead to inconsistencies or inaccuracies.

The involvement of the enrollment office is more focused on enrollment management and logistics rather than daily attendance. Class instructors may keep track of attendance in their individual classes, but this is not typically the official record. Hence, placing this responsibility on the Academy staff ensures that the records are kept meticulously and are compliant with established protocols.
