Register for WILENET Access

WILENET, the Wisconsin Law Enforcement Network, is a password-protected Internet web site, which provides information of interest to law enforcement agencies in the state.

  1. Persons involved in the training of law enforcement personnel such as academy directors and instructors certified by the Wisconsin Law Enforcement Standards Board.
  2. Wisconsin tribal law enforcement officers following a written request on agency letterhead from the agency's chief executive.

How to request access

First, contact your supervisor or local ACADIS administrator. They can initiate the registration process on your behalf. Next you will be provided a link to complete the registration process online.

  1. Full name, including middle initial, of the person needing access to WILENET.
  2. That person's social security number. This number is used to confirm the person's identity during registration.
  3. That person's birthdate.
  4. An e-mail address for notification after the request has been completed.
  5. Agency letterhead and signature of the chief executive of the agency.
