Grant Description

The Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) is seeking proposals for assistance in administering the 2012 Census of Law Enforcement Training Academies (CLETA). The goal of this survey is to generate accurate, reliable, timely, and relevant national statistics about state, regional, and local law enforcement training academies in the United States. The data collection is scheduled to begin in the first quarter of 2013. It will collect information referencing 2012 on the recruits, staff, curricula, facilities, and policies in all of the approximately 750 academies operating in the United States. A data collection instrument and respondent list will be provided by BJS. The authority for BJS to issue this solicitation is the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968, Section 302, as amended.
