LETA
Underscoring its commitment to the value of training, Bullard and LETA have an exclusive agreement to offer customers thermal imaging training for certification. Every TacSight Thermal Imager sold comes with a certificate for one free registration (a $300 value) to a Certified Basic Thermographer’s Association (LETA). LETA conducts training all over the country and is the only certifying organization for law enforcement thermography training. LETA, long recognized as the authority on thermal imagers used in law enforcement, offers four levels of certification: Basic, Advanced, Instructor and Recertification. To find out more, visit www.leta.org.
What is LETA?
The Law Enforcement Thermographers’ Association (LETA), founded in 1995, is a professional law enforcement organization dedicated to promoting the legal and ethical use of thermal imaging
in support of law enforcement operations. LETA membership, originally limited to those engaged in or supporting law enforcement has been expanded to accept all those engaged in providing
or supporting public safety. LETA law enforcement training is recognized across the USA, as well as internationally. The Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Drug Enforcement Administration,
the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and a number of state and local agencies currently use LETA for their thermal imaging training.
Can I join LETA?
LETA is now open to any individual who is a member of a public safety agency, or to members of any organization actively involved in supporting public safety agencies. Individual membership
is $25.00 (US). This is not included in the testing and certification fee.
Why should I or my department join LETA?
Fire service members receive the following benefits from LETA membership. Of course, as this program grows, we expect this list to expand:
- Regular newsletter updating LETA members about changes in law, creative new applications, additional training, etc.
- Access to WMD First Responder programs as they are developed
- Professional interaction with law enforcement agencies across the world
- Assistance finding grant sources
- Access to LETA’s national and international training events and conferences
