FLETA Board Grants Reaccreditation to Two CBP Air & Marine Programs
The Federal Law Enforcement Training Accreditation (FLETA) Board is pleased to announce it granted reaccreditation status to the CBP Air and Marine Operations, National Air Training Center, Survival Tactics Aviation Recurrent (STAR) and to the Survival Tactics Aviation Recurrent Non-6c (STAR Non-6c) at the November 16, 2023, meeting.
The purpose of the STAR program is to train Law Enforcement First Responders in medical care, land and water survival, off-duty carry tactics, legal updates, and active shooter response to armed Air and Marine Operations Agents through classroom and laboratory environments. The STAR program is five instructional days and consists of 40 hours of instruction. The number of students per iteration of the program is 18.
The purpose of the STAR Non-6c is to train Law Enforcement First Responders in medical care, land and water survival for unarmed Air and Marine Operations Agents through classroom and laboratory environments. The STAR Non-6c program is two instructional days and consists of 16 hours of instruction. The number of students per iteration of the program is 18.
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.
