The Federal Law Enforcement Training Accreditation (FLETA) Board is pleased to announce it granted initial accreditation status to the U.S. Postal Inspection Service (USPIS) Career Development Unit (CDU) at the April 27, 2017 meeting in Naval Station Mayport, FL.
The USPIS CDU has oversight for 6 non-basic and 3 basic training programs. The CDU is located in Potomac, MD and is responsible for the operation of the national training academy. The CDU mission is to provide superior training to all Inspection Service employees and be recognized as premier law enforcement training academy.
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 Program 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.
