Oklahoma Council on Law Enforcement Education and Training
CLEET
Summary
CLEET is the statewide peace officer certification and decertification body. Its 13-member council consists entirely of law enforcement officials and association representatives (three ex officio agency directors, one Governor-appointed tribal LE administrator, one Governor-appointed municipal chief, and eight members appointed by LE associations and legislative leaders). CLEET may suspend or revoke peace officer certification upon clear and convincing evidence of disqualifying conduct. Its subpoena power is limited to medical/mental health records in disciplinary proceedings. It receives investigative reports and agency termination notices but does not conduct independent use-of-force investigations. Budget is funded by the Penalty Assessment Fee, appropriated by the Legislature. No civilian members are required or permitted by statute.
