Does any one know a college/university that...

...accepts life experience towards credits? I want to get a degree in criminal justice, and I was hoping my ten years in law enforcement would equal a large part of the degree. I have also attended several advanced academies and training seminars.

You'd probably be best off to find a college you're interested in and talk to their academic counselors about this. They might give you credit that would count towards your degree but not fulfill any requirements; it would prevent you from having to take extra electives classes but not get you out of any classes relating to the CJ major.

Most public universities offer credit for life experience for example Ohio University does the way it works is that you take a test if you pass you get credit for the class without taking it with the high numbers of non traditional students on campus today colleges are ready to help call your local admissions office they can tell you their schools policy on this
