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—

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.

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.
