Strategic Associations
Syscon Justice Systems has partnered with leading organizations that are committed to the advancement of the global corrections profession. We support their efforts to deliver the latest thinking in technology and best business practices, and participate as often as possible in idea-sharing forums and industry events.
International Corrections and Prisons Association
The ICPA was formed to operate as an association for corrections and prison professionals, dedicated to improving global understanding and professionalism in the sector. The ICPA believes that improving the professionalism and competence of correctional officers is likely to have a greater positive impact on prison conditions and the humane treatment of prisoners than most other actions. The ICPA is not a lobbying or prisoner rights organization, but exists to provide an inclusive, safe and secure forum for the respectful exchange of ideas, technology, and best practices in the profession of corrections.
Syscon Justice Systems is proud to participate as a Gold-level Institutional Member of the ICPA and attendee of its annual conference.
The IJIS Institute is a US-based nonprofit organization that brings together industry and government in an effort to promote the advancement of national information sharing standards across all levels of the justice, public safety, corrections and homeland security communities. Syscon Justice Systems is proud to be a member of IJIS. We help to serve the Institute through participation on the Technical Advisory Committee for Corrections.
Corrections Technology Association
The Corrections Technology Association (CTA) is a public, US-based non-profit network of professionals actively involved in leveraging technology in the field of Corrections. Members of the association consist primarily of Chief Information Officers, IT Directors and operational and administrative staff from State and Provincial Departments of Correction, as well as from Federal, county and local correctional agencies.
Since 1999 CTA has provided a forum to promote exchange of information, experience and knowledge among correctional agencies. Through the years, the association has actively led development of standards and promoted collaboration and sharing of data and systems across states. CTA's annual Technology Summit offers its members an unsurpassed opportunity to learn of new technologies and, above all else, affords corrections technologists the opportunity to network with their peers.
Syscon Justice Systems is a proud supporter of the CTA and its mission, and serves as the business partner representative on the CTA Executive Committee.
