Programs

CREST 

The FBI CREST (Community Relations Executive Seminar Training) is a shorter, more focused version of the FBI Citizens Academy program and is conducted in partnership with a specific community group at an offsite location. The program is designed to build trust and strengthen relationships between the FBI and the communities we serve. Classes are taught by FBI executives, senior special agents, and program managers. Participants are selected by members of their organizations or community.

 

Future Agents in Training 

Future Agents in Training (FAIT) is a program that originated out of the FBI’s Washington Field Office but has expanded to additional field offices throughout the country. FAIT invites high school students to receive hands-on training and works to educate and inform students about the mission of the FBI’s criminal, counterterrorism, intelligence, counterintelligence, and administrative divisions. Students learn from special agents, intelligence analysts, language specialists, and professional staff about investigative tactics that include gathering evidence, interviewing witnesses, and assisting with cases.
