WELCOME TO
SAPPA
A professional organisation that promotes quality
polygraph services to the society.
WHY USE A SAPPA
POLYGRAPH EXAMINER?
Certified & Continually Educated
It is the position of the South African Professional Polygraph Association (SAPPA) that a polygraph examination, properly administered by a well trained and competent polygraph examiner, using validated testing principles and procedures, has a high degree of accuracy in detecting deception or otherwise determining the truthfulness of provided information.
Thoroughly Vetted Professionals
Quality is achieved by way of training, experience and adherence to professional standards. Training and experience alone do not increase the probability of an accurate test result when professional standards or other validated testing principles and procedures are not followed.
Uncompromising Quality Assurance
To facilitate the conduct of valid and reliable polygraph examinations, the SAPPA has established Standards of Practice that are consistent with, or exceed those of, the American Polygraph Association (APA), of which SAPPA is a Divisional Member, and the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM – International).
