AACOP Annual Training Conference and Vendor Expo 2027

It takes place at Harrah's Ak-Chin Casino and Resort in Maricopa, Arizona.

The organizer identifies law enforcement leaders and purchasing agents as audiences, and names chiefs and command staff in its conference information.

It is most useful for vendors selling to Arizona law enforcement, since the organizer pitches access to chiefs, command staff and purchasing agents, and sponsors such as Panasonic and 511 Tactical show active supplier interest. It is also a practical training meeting for chiefs and command staff of Arizona agencies; officers outside Arizona or vendors without a public safety product will find the pool regional and narrower than a national policing show.

Police chiefs and command staff usually attend in dress uniform or business attire, with vendors in business casual or branded polos. A casino resort in Arizona in late January is mild but can be cool in the evening, so a light jacket is sensible.
