MACA has hosted an annual training conference for over 20 years, gathering analysts, officers and command staff from across New England and throughout the country for five days of world class training.  We have subject matter experts teaching breakout sessions and national leaders in policing giving keynote addresses. Since 2022 our conference has been held at Hotel 1620, a venue in historic downtown Plymouth, Massachusetts; and we are excited about revisiting the historic site.

We are also thrilled to partner with NESPIN again, bringing their top notch training and technical assistance to our attendees. They were absolutely wonderful to work with and would happily partner with NESPIN again in the future. 

We hope you will join us!
