Introduction

The Regional Information Sharing Systems (RISS) Office of Information Technology (OIT) is pleased to announce that the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC) Electronic Learning Portal (ELP) is now available to sworn law enforcement officers in the United States through the RISSNET™ Portal. The FLETC ELP provides a wide variety of on-line training sessions for law enforcement, and is offered at no cost for sworn RISSNET law enforcement users from the United States. This RISS OIT Instruction Guide provides information regarding how users can access the FLETC ELP resource.

About FLETC

Headquartered in Glynco, Georgia and administrated by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), FLETC offers many levels of law enforcement training from basic through advanced. The FLETC Electronic Learning Portal allows RISSNET users access to videos and other training materials by logging on to the RISSNET Portal using their RISSNET account.

go directly to the Accessing the FLETC Electronic Learning Portal section below. RISSNET users who are new to the RISSNET Portal will gain access to the RISSNET Portal through the RISS Public Website. The RISS Public Website is available via the public Internet at www.riss.net.
