The Original UK Polygraph Association
WELCOME TO THE UK Polygraph Association
The UK Polygraph Association (UKPA) is the original UK dedicated professional polygraph association. All of our members are committed to providing a valid and accurate means to verify the truth and establish the highest standards of ethical, professional and moral conduct in the polygraph field. We are the only association that provides approved advanced training for our members, ensuring they are the best in the field.
The growth in the usage of the polygraph by business, private and government individuals in the United Kingdom, has demonstrated the necessity for a professional association to help promote professional standards within the industry ensuring all its members use the latest equipment and techniques to ensure the greatest accuracy and reliability and that each member is fully up to date with their continuing training requirements..
This website provides accurate information regarding polygraph testing in general and provides a registry of qualified and experienced examiners who are up to date with their training.
