*Regular membership is for a sworn position which in the performance of duties carry a firearm, have arrest power, attended a law enforcement academy and have a badge. This would include police officers, deputy sheriffs, state troopers, FBI and most Federal Agents, for example. Non-Sworn are Associates and do not have at least one of the items mentioned; these positions include criminal analysts, crime scene technicians and crime lab personnel, for example. While these jobs may be performed by sworn personnel, the position itself is not a sworn position.
