Multiple Choice

Which of the following is included as a member group of NMLEA?

Membership in NMLEA reflects the range of law enforcement entities that operate in New Mexico, including tribal governments and their police leadership. A tribal police chief is included because tribal nations in the state run their own police departments and participate in statewide training, standards, and cooperative policing efforts with other agencies. Federal agents stationed in New Mexico operate under federal authority, not within the state academy’s membership. Administrative assistants to sheriffs and private security guards aren’t sworn law enforcement agencies, so they aren’t part of the academy’s member groups. That makes the tribal police chief the appropriate choice.
