The Netherlands Policy Academy's Centres of Knowledge develop and collect knowledge to benefit both policing practice and police training. The foremost topics include local policing, criminal investigation, digitalisation, intelligence, technology and human conduct and the organisation. This knowledge allows us to help Police Officers and Netherlands Police Academy tutors to do their work.

A properly functioning and reliable police force is important to society and the Netherlands Police Academy possesses a lot of expertise on the police profession - reasons why other knowledge institutes are happy to cooperate with the centres of knowledge in conducting their research.
