Established in 1974, the Washington State Criminal Justice Training Commission operates as a state agency in Washington tasked with setting standards and delivering training for criminal justice professionals, including peace officers and local corrections officers. It also certifies peace officers and, when necessary, revokes those certifications to ensure adherence to state requirements. Under RCW 43.101.020, Washington is among the few states that both define training standards and provide the basic training for peace officers and corrections officers, supporting a consistent entry standard across local agencies.

Headquartered in Burien, the commission maintains a professional staff drawn from across the state. Standards and policy are overseen by fourteen governor-appointed commissioners in conjunction with the state legislature. The organization collaborates with national partners and researchers to develop training approaches and evaluate training methods, with the aim of maintaining effective, evidence-based practices in criminal justice training.
