FLETA Board Grants Accreditation to the DHS ITA IDC

For Immediate Release

The Federal Law Enforcement Training Accreditation (FLETA) Board is pleased to announce it granted accreditation status to the DHS Office of Intelligence & Analysis Intelligence Training Academy (ITA) Instructor Development Course (IDC) at the May 15, 2025, meeting.

The purpose of the IDC is to prepare Subject Matter Experts (SME) from various fields within the Intelligence Community to effectively instruct students within the ITA. The course will utilize an instructor-led training approach to focus on skills specific to a proficient instructor, such as effective delivery of course material, student engagement, classroom management, and proper assessment procedures. The IDC is five instructional days and consists of 40 hours of instruction. The average number of students per iteration of the program is six.

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.
