The Federal Law Enforcement Training Accreditation (FLETA) Board is pleased to announce it has granted initial accreditation status to the United States Postal Inspection Service (USPIS) Instructor Development Program (IDP) at the November 3-5, 2015 meeting in Glynco, GA.
The purpose of the IDP is to ensure the development of newly appointed full-time staff instructors at the USPIS Career Development Unit (CDU) who are responsible for the basic Postal Inspector and Postal Police Officer training programs. The course is delivered in a blended learning format to include teaching competencies and technical aspects of course development.
The FLETA Board is the accrediting body for all federal law enforcement training and support programs. To achieve accreditation, agencies submit to an independent review of their academy and/or program to ensure compliance with the FLETA Standards and Procedures in the areas of: Administration, Training Staff, Training Development, Training Delivery, and Distance Learning. Accreditation is a cyclical process occurring every five years. Each year, agencies must submit annual reports in preparation for reaccreditation, which is a new and independent review of the academy/program.
