ISSUE, BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, & RECOMMENDATION
ISSUE:
Should the Commission authorized the Executive Director to enter into an Interagency Agreement with the Department of Justice (DOJ) for FY 2015-16 to present the described training courses for an amount not to exceed $519,889.
BACKGROUND:
POST has contracted with the DOJ to present certified courses since 1974.  The amount of the agreement each year is based upon actual presentation costs to DOJ for instruction, coordination, clerical support supplies, and travel.  Training needs assessment information including mandated courses and agency feedback influence which courses are included in the contract.  Individual course budgets are developed in accordance with existing certification requirements. 
ANALYSIS:
The Department of Justice provides quality, highly technical training courses that are not readily available through other presenters.  Response from the field reflects continued interest and need for these courses. 

 The course cost breakdown is reflected in Attachment A.   
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Commission authorize the Executive Director to enter into an Interagency Agreement with the Department of Justice (DOJ) for FY 2015-16 to present the described training courses for an amount not to exceed $519,889.
