Striving for Excellence in Agency Operations
The Lexipol Connect Recognition Program is a unique initiative aimed at helping our customers achieve excellence in managing critical areas of operation such as policy, training and wellness.
For over 20 years, Lexipol has provided public safety agencies with effective solutions that enhance community protection and empower performance excellence. Throughout the years, we’ve identified key metrics that contribute to successful management of these tools. The Lexipol Connect Recognition Program is designed to provide insights and recognize customers who excel in these key metrics.

What Metrics Are Measured?
The Lexipol Connect Recognition Program involves five simple metrics in the areas of policy and online training:
What Metrics Are Measured?
| Metric | How It’s Measured | How You Can Influence |
| Policy Updates Pending | Number of policy updates issued by Lexipol but not yet processed by our agency. | Process updates, either by accepting or rejecting updated content. |
| Policies Issued | Percentage of policies issued to members in comparison to the total number of policies in your draft manual. | Issue additional policies or exclude any policies not applicable to your agency from your draft manual. |
| Policies Acknowledged | Percentage of all policy acknowledgment assignments completed by members, in comparison to all policies issued or updated. | Communicate expectations that policy acknowledgment assignments are to be promptly completed. Remove inactive members from list of active users. |
| Daily Training Bulletins (DTBs) Issued | Percentage of DTB packages issued to members in comparison to the number of DTB packages received from Lexipol over the last 12 months. | Issue DTB package each month, even if you choose to edit or exclude some of the individual DTBs. |
| DTBs Taken | Percentage of all DTB assignments completed by members, in comparison to all DTBs issued over the last 12 months. | Communicate expectations that DTB assignments are to be promptly completed. Remove inactive members from list of active users. |
Training
| Metric | How It’s Measured | How You Can Influence |
| Average Hours of Training Assigned | Average hours of training assigned per member in the last 12 months. | Issue additional training each month. Engage supervisors in creating Learning Plans and assigning training courses. |
| Training Assignment Completions | Percentage of training hours assigned in the last 12 months that were completed. | Communicate expectations that training assignments are to be promptly completed. Remove inactive members from the list of active users. |

| User Activity | Percentage of agency users that have completed training in the last 12 months. | Communicate expectations that training assignments are to be promptly completed. Remove inactive members from the list of active users. |
| External Training Ratio | Average External Training Hours reported per Active User. | Use reports to track member of performance. Highlight benefits of record centralization, professional development, and compliance tracking. |
What Are The Recognition Levels?
Based on these metrics, we’ve created a framework that defines target performance for each metric and recognizes agencies that are performing well through Bronze, Silver and Gold recognition levels. Here is the target performance for each level:
Policy
| Metric | Bronze | Silver | Gold |
| Updates Pending | < 25 | < 20 | < 10 |
| Policies Issued | >70% | >70% | >80% |
| Policies Acknowledged | N/A | >70% | >80% |
| Daily Training Bulletins (DTBs) Issued | >70% | >70% | >80% |
| DTBs Taken | N/A | >70% | >80% |
To achieve a given performance level, all applicable criteria for that level must be met. Bronze level performance can be achieved by meeting the minimum required performance for three metrics – Policies Issued, Updates Pending and DTBs Issued. To achieve the Silver or Gold performance level, a minimum performance for Policies Acknowledged and DTBs Taken is also required.
Training
| Metric | Bronze | Silver | Gold |
| Average Hours of Training Assigned | ≥ 4 | ≥ 4 | ≥ 8 |
| Training Assignment Completions | N/A | ≥ 70% | ≥ 80% |
| Average Hours of Training Completed | ≥ 8 | ≥ 8 | ≥ 12 |
| User Activity | < 70% | ≥ 70% | ≥ 80% |
| External Training Ratio | ≤ 0 | > 0 | > .5 |
To achieve a given performance level, all applicable criteria for that level must be met. Bronze level performance can be achieved by meeting the minimum required performance for four metrics –Average Hours of Training Assigned, Average Hours of Training Completed, User Activity and External Training Ratio. To achieve the Silver performance level, a minimum performance for Training Assignment Completions is also required.
What Information Will I Receive About My Agency’s Performance?
At the end of each quarter, we will email you a status report on your agency’s performance against the program metrics—Your Quarterly Lexipol Connect Update. The report will contain your overall performance rating for the quarter based on the highest rating of the last three months. Your performance rating can fluctuate from month to month as Lexipol issues policy updates, training mandates or you work to improve your metrics.
