A CNN analysis found that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement deportation officers receive less training than almost any other federal law enforcement agents, with the Trump administration cutting training days from 20 weeks to 42 days. ICE deportation officers now receive less training than officials investigating exotic animal smuggling and odometer fraud, and only slightly more than court probation officers and federal prison guards. The agency claims it streamlined training and incorporated technology advancements without cutting essential content. ICE whistleblowers and former trainers state that the abbreviated training poses safety risks and fails to meet legal standards.
