Training Calendar available online at www.pblea.org
TCLEOSE Courses 3232 & 3939, Cultural Diversity and Special Investigative Topics (Child Abuse &
Neglect, Family Violence, Sexual Assault, Sex Offenders Characteristics) are part of the TCLEOSE
required courses for all Peace Officers for the current two year training cycle (9/1/2007 – 8/31/2009).
ICS 300 & 400 (ICS 300 Intermediate ICS for Expanding Incidents; ICS 400 ICS for Command and
General Staff Complex Incidents) is new training that has been mandated by the Governor’s Division of
Emergency Management for all Public Safety/Public Works supervisory personnel in Texas. This is the
first ICS course that can not be offered online and must be classroom. 23 trainers have now attended Train
The Trainer courses and will begin offering classes around the 17 County region. Please make every effort
to place your command personnel in one of the classes offered above.
SKYWARN For all Law Enforcement officers tasked with “spotting” and reporting weather activity during
thunderstorm and tornado season, SKYWARN training is recommended. At this time of year, the National
Weather Service offers a slate of 2 hour courses at many towns in the region. Any officer attending one of
those courses will receive TCLEOSE hours through PBLEA. See attached schedule below.
Information: The Permian Basin Law Enforcement Academy is currently in “At Risk” status with the
Texas Commission on Law Enforcement Officer Standards and Education. We went into that status in
September after a poor TCLEOSE pass rate with the 78th Academy. We have submitted an action plan to
TCLEOSE and our Advisory Board regarding our plans for improvement. Specifically, we have
implemented an inspection process of all Academy processes (NOTE: A copy of that Inspection will be
attached to the email with this Calendar for your information), that includes a testing process for the
duration of the Academy that precedes any endorsement for a Recruit to take the TCLEOSE exam.
Specifically, a Recruit must pass all monthly tests, and must score an 80% or better on the exit exam to be
endorsed for TCLEOSE testing. We are already seeing very good results with this process in the 79th and
80th Academies, and our expectation is that the grades on the TCLEOSE exam will rise to the level that we
can be taken off of At Risk status by August 31, 2008. Your comments are certainly welcome. Thank you
for your support of PBLEA.
