Association of Crime & Intelligence Analysts

The ACIA is specifically structured to support the professional needs of crime and intelligence analysts across the United Kingdom and Ireland. Our membership is drawn from a broad range of public and private-sector organisations, bringing together diverse skills, backgrounds, and experience. We believe this diversity—connected within a manageable geographic network —is fundamental to fostering meaningful professional development and collaboration. While our focus is regional, we actively encourage members to engage with international associations to broaden their perspectives and enhance their professional growth.  

We are in active collaboration with  EACA, IALEIA and IACA .

ACIA’s objectives complement those of the Police National Analyst Business Group (NABG) and we work with NABG to enhance the professionalisation of analysis in the UK wherever possible.

We are an interactive association where member participation is central to everything we do. 

ACIA isn’t a service you purchase—it’s a community you become part of. We are the sum of our members, and every success we achieve is the direct result of their commitment and collaboration. Together, we can accomplish great things.

If you have a good idea, and have time and effort to contribute, then the association wants to help you bring that idea to fruition and make it happen.

Getting involved in ACIA’s activities can be very rewarding in terms of engaging in the wider analytical community, growing your network and gaining great experience and exposure all of which help with your personal and professional development.

The commitment required from volunteers is flexible and does not necessarily involve large amounts of travel or time.
