POTENTIAL FUNDING FOR TRAINING While some in-service training opportunities are free of cost, if a municipal police department’s or county law enforcement office’s operational budget is insufficient to absorb the cost of private vendor training, alternative funding options are available. These include use of Law Enforcement Trust Account (LETA), Municipal Law Enforcement Trust Account (MLETA) and Special Law Enforcement Fund (SLEF) monies, generally comprised of monies forfeited due to criminal activity. While there are several restrictions on the use of such monies, the training of law enforcement has almost always been deemed the legitimate and primary use of these funds. Law enforcement agencies can also pursue state, federal, or private grant funding offerings.
