FLETC is responsible for providing training to some 80-90 odd federal programs, most of which have armed personnel, most of whom begin their training preparing for FLETC's basic course of fire, the Practical Pistol Course (PPC).
The PPC is a 60 round course of fire. FLETC requires shooters to achieve a minimum score of 210; some agencies require shooters to acheive minimum scores of 225 or 240.
Note: Many agencies, and even programs within agencies, have their own courses of fire. Some are taught in lieu of the PPC, some in addition. All are similar in that they serve to test, verify, and document the basic skill sets expected of the shooters. Most are 50-60 round courses of fire from the 1.5 or 3 yard line to the 25 yard line. They are courses of fire the majority of shooters, to include those with no prior firearms experience, can and do pass.
I'll dig around and try to find the PPC course of fire.
And... to prepare for any of them work on:
Your basic marksmanship and pistol manipulation skills. Being able to hit with you intent to, when you intend to, and to be able to clear any malfunctions along the way will put you ahead of the power curve. There are many federal LEOs who are very, very skilled, you just don't have to be when you show up at the Academy gates.
If you're a Modern Technique/ Weaver shooter... work on your modern isosceles stance.
