Effective January 1, 2014, this training is now a licensing course required of all new telecommunication specialists.  The course must be completed within one year of hire by an agency.  Participants must meet state minimum standards set forth by the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE), pass the course, and pass the TCOLE state exam in order to become licensed.

The class is open to individuals who are already working for a law enforcement agency and are seeking to obtain their licensing requirements mandated by TCOLE. 

 

It is required to complete the TCIC/TLETS Full Access course (4802) and the NIMS classes before this class.  TCIC/TLETS Full Access Course will be held the week prior to the Basic Telecommunications Class (1080).  Check our law enforcement training portal for class dates www.aarlea.com. 

NIMS 100 and 200 classes can be completed through FEMA on-line at:
