The Abington Police Department announced that Lieutenant Anthony Space graduated from the Mid-Atlantic Law Enforcement Executive Development Seminar (MALEEDS) on Friday, June 13 in Princeton, New Jersey.

The program, which is designed to provide advanced leadership training for police chiefs and law enforcement executives, included 69 men and women from law enforcement agencies across New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania this year.

According to the department, MALEEDS is a “highly selective and successful program offering valuable insights into the complex challenges faced by today’s police leaders.” Participation is by invitation only and is granted through a highly competitive application process, and graduates become members of the broader FBI-Law Enforcement Executive Development Association (FBI-LEEDA).

“While we pride ourselves on our high-level educational program, the MALEEDS Executive Board also provides nightly networking opportunities to continue the learning experience outside of the classroom and encourages our attendees to foster relationships that will allow them to better themselves and their agencies,” said MALEEDS President Chuck Davall, Jr.

“We are extremely proud of the continued success of Mid-Atlantic LEEDS and remain committed to delivering the highest level of executive leadership training and networking opportunities to law enforcement professionals in the tri-state area,” said John DeVoe, Vice President of MALEEDS.
