The Federal Bureau of Investigation administers the Law Enforcement Assistance FBI Advanced Police Training program (CFDA 16.300) to provide advanced management and specialized training to experienced law enforcement personnel from local, county, state, and select federal criminal justice agencies, with no recent grant award date appearing in the source.
The program funds classroom-based training delivery rather than project grants or research.

Training is delivered at the FBI Academy at Quantico, Virginia, and through conferences and seminars on topics such as budgeting, scientific technical analysis, and crime prevention.
Applicants must be regular, full-time personnel of a criminal justice agency serving a municipality, county, local, or state jurisdiction, or selected federal agency representatives with criminal justice responsibilities. Candidates must meet age, experience, education, physical, and character requirements specified by the FBI. Nomination and application flow through the agency head, who submits FBI Form FD-164 for National Academy candidates; qualified applicants are interviewed at FBI field office level, with specialized course applications also routed to the local FBI office for processing.
The source does not contain a grant award portfolio block, recent grant awards, or open grant opportunities.
