The sections that follow explain the training courses and years of experience/education criterion for
each certification. Each section has one training area and NIMS/Other, which is required for all to
complete. There are then two separate tracks for law enforcement officers, which includes: Patrol
and Special Response Units (SWAT, Crime Scene Technicians, EOD, etc.).
Criterion for Basic Law Enforcement Academy Certification
Basic Law Enforcement Academy Certification requires successful completion of a Basic Law
Enforcement Academy of not less than 280 hours for those persons gaining Oklahoma peace officer
certification by reciprocity agreements with other states, and not less than 300 hours for those
persons attending a CLEET Basic Law Enforcement Academy or one approved by CLEET. In
addition, applicants must meet the prescribed minimum employment standards as established by 70
O.S. § 3311.
Tribal Law Enforcement Basic Academy Certification requires successful completion of a Basic Law
Enforcement Academy recognized by the U. S. Department of the Interior (DOI), Bureau of Indian
Affairs (BIA). CLEET will verify that the Tribal Law Enforcement Basic Academy is recognized by
the DOI/BIA.
Basic Law Enforcement Certifications will not be issued as part of this program as they are
automatically generated upon the completion of a Basic Law Enforcement Academy. While basic
peace officer Certification is a mandate of 70 O.S. § 3311, participation in the Law Enforcement
Terrorism Certification Program is voluntary. However, completion of a Basic Law Enforcement
Academy does play a role in the basic requirements for this certification program.
Terrorism-related training is defined as:
1. Management, continuing education, or other specialized courses that are accredited,
sponsored, approved, or presented by the CLEET, the CLEET Law Enforcement Basic
Academy, and all approved city academies.
2. Departmental or other in-service training, which is recorded and documented in the
personnel file of the officer’s department. These official agency training records must
include the subject, instructor, classroom hours, sponsor, location, and dates of training.
3. If properly documented, training completed in other states, military police training, tribal law
enforcement training, and other specialized training may be submitted to the Council for
evaluation and approval of terrorism-related training.
