"Accreditation has maximized the credibility of our CI special agents when they go to testify in court. While at the same time, minimizing the lawsuits and liabilities that exist, that could come with questions about an agents training or the failure of an agency to train a particular agent. So again, there’s a benefit for us that we’ve seen and recognized through FLETA and being accredited with the credibility that it gives our agency as well as our agents." -- Terry Stuart (Retired), Director, National Criminal Investigation Training Academy, Internal Revenue Service
