National Policing Improvement Agency

The National Policing Improvement Agency (NPIA) was a UK organization that supported police forces by providing training, technology, and shared resources to improve effectiveness and efficiency. It helped coordinate efforts across different police departments, promoted best practices, and implemented national programs to enhance public safety. The NPIA aimed to enable police services to operate more consistently and effectively, using modern methods and tools. It operated from 2007 until its functions were absorbed into other agencies in 2013, playing a key role in modernizing policing in the UK.
