MILITARY POLICE . 19-14-2 26 y Regional semina s. These seminars, which accommodate 35 students (usually graduates of the regional ILEA core program), focus on specialized topics, including counterterrorism and fnancial and transnational crimes. State, Local, and Tribal Division The State, Local, and Tribal Division coordinates the participation of local, state, and tribal law enforcement agencies in FLETC courses and the export of FLETC courses to the locations of local, state, and tribal agencies nationwide. The division provides high-quality training, often at no cost to participating agencies. Instructional Delivery Division The recently organized Instructional Delivery Division provides supervision for the Instructor Development Branch, which is best known for its management of the 2-week Law Enforcement Instructor Training Program—a requirement for all FLETC instructors. The division also oversees the newly formed e-Learning Branch, which is charged with the development, design, and deployment of FLETC online learning for law enforcement offcers. In addition to completing work rotations and observations in the various FLETC divisions during my internship, I also partnered with a senior policy and program analyst from the FLETC administrative headquarters. Each directorate is assigned one senior policy and program analyst who performs functions similar to those of an executive offcer. These analysts manage a myriad of actions, projects, and programs such as personnel actions, special projects, and the coordination of multidirectorate projects. The analyst with whom I was paired was very knowledgeable about the administrative functions of FLETC and the intricacies of its divisions. In addition, the partnership afforded me the opportunity to meet and interact with senior policy and program analysts from other FLETC directorates. I also partnered with the Federal Law Enforcement Training Accreditation organization, which is an autonomous, congressionally mandated entity that serves as the accreditation authority for all federal law enforcement agencies. This organization consists of the— y Fede al Law Enfo cement T aining Acc editation Boa The board is made up of members from law enforcement agencies and academia, who meet biannually to review applications for accreditation. y Offce of Acc editation. This offce, which is located at FLETC in Glynco, is linked to FLETC only for budgetary actions. Finally, I have participated in several FLETC initiatives this year, including— y Leade ship in a C isis T aining. This is a program that is under development by the Leadership Institute, Leadership and International Training Division, Regional and International Training Directorate, and is based on meta-leadership using Hydra Foundation© methodology as a tool to facilitate training. 1 This new program of instruction focuses on leadership decisions during multiagency responses to critical incidents; it addresses how leaders approach decisions and resolve con ict. The pilot program for the Leadership in a Crisis Training is scheduled for 1st quarter, fscal year 2015. y Summit III: P evention of Multiple Casualty Violence. This summit—which was sponsored by FLETC; the Offce of Community-Oriented Policing Services, U.S. Department of Justice; and the School of Education, Johns Hopkins University—was the third and fnal gathering of multidisciplinary national subject matter experts with the collective goal of mitigating or eliminating multiple casualty violence incidents by determining preventive measures for communities. The result of the summit was a scalable product for communities to implement in their efforts against multiple casualty violence. During my tenure as a TWI intern, I have been privileged to work with the professional instructors and staff at FLETC, where I have gained insight into the FLETC business model, operations, and curricula development. Compiling the requirements and wishes of more than 90 partner organizations and molding them into four basic training classes are impressive feats involving cooperation and compromise. With the knowledge and experience within USAMPS and FLETC, numerous opportunities exist for both organizations to capitalize.
