FLETA Board Grants Reaccreditation to the TSATC IDC
The Federal Law Enforcement Training Accreditation (FLETA) Board is pleased to announce it granted reaccreditation status to the Transportation Security Administration Training Center (TSATC), Instructor Development Course (IDC) at the April 21, 2022, meeting.
The IDC is intended for TSA employees with little or no formal training experience who have been assigned to instructor roles. The terminal course objective is for students to work with IDC faculty to design and develop a 30-minute lesson which the students deliver on the final day of the course. The IDC is five instructional days and consists of 40 hours of instruction. The average number of students per iteration of the program is 12.
The FLETA Board is the accrediting body for all federal law enforcement training and support programs. To achieve accreditation, training organizations submit to an independent review of their program and/or academy to ensure compliance with the FLETA Standards and Procedures in the areas of Administration, Training Staff, Training Development, and Training Delivery. Accreditation is a cyclical process occurring every five years. Each year, training organizations must submit annual reports in preparation for reaccreditation, which is a new and independent review of the program/academy.
