Overview of This Information Collection
(1) Type of Information Collection: Reinstatement of the Census of
Law Enforcement Training Academies, with changes, a previously approved
collection for which approval has expired.
(2) The Title of the Form/Collection: 2022 Census of Law
Enforcement Training Academies (CLETA).
(3) The agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of
the Department sponsoring the collection: The form number for the
questionnaire is CJ-52. The applicable component within the Department
of Justice is the Bureau of Justice Statistics, in the Office of
Justice Programs.
(4) Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as
well as a brief abstract: Respondents will include all state and local
law enforcement training academies in the United States that provide
basic training to law enforcement recruits. BJS has conducted the CLETA
regularly since 2002. The 2022 CLETA will be the fifth administration.
Historically, the CLETA generates an enumeration of all state and local
training academies that provide basic law enforcement training in the
United States. The CLETA provides details about the instructors,
curricula, resources, and recruits at the approximately 750 training
academies operating nationally. The survey asks about the operating
entity; resources available to recruits; total operating budget; full-
time and part-time instructors or trainers and their education, sworn
officer experience, certifications, and ongoing training; sex, race and
Hispanic origin, prior educational attainment, and veteran status of
recruits starting and completing training; and the length and content
of basic training curricula offered at the academy.
(5) An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount
of time estimated for an average respondent to respond: BJS estimates
approximately 750 law enforcement academies with a respondent burden of
about 2 hours per academy to complete the survey form and about 10
minutes per agency of data quality follow-up time for approximately 450
of those academies.
(6) An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated
with the collection: There are an estimated 1,575 total burden hours
associated with this information collection.
