The FBI Academy's Hogan's Alley complex is a realistic, urban, practical problem training area which was initiated in March 1987. Even though Hogan's Alley is probably the most famous of the facilities, the Practical Applications Unit (PAU) manages and schedules all practical training events, administers practical problem exercises primarily to New Agent trainees, and provides safety and survival training to law enforcement officers and FBI Agents. In addition, the PAU has two sub-programs, the Law Enforcement Training for Safety and Survival Program (LETSS) and the Tactical Emergency Vehicle Operators Course Program (TEVOC). The LETSS Program provides tactical training to law enforcement officers both at the FBI Academy as well as throughout the nation and world. The TEVOC Program instructs new agents and other law enforcement personnel in the area of defensive driving and emergency vehicle operation techniques.

Any scheduling of the facilities for TEVOC or other facilities need to be coordinated with the Unit Chief's Office, Practical Applications Unit at (703)632-3252 or fax (703)632-3251. Depending upon the training being sought, a written request (EC or e-mail) should be submitted to John Stafford, Unit Chief, for approval.
