Introduced Session

This bill requires constables to complete, within six months of appointment, a training course conducted by a police training school approved by the Police Training Commission which has elected to provide training to constables. The training is to include an overview of Title 39 motor vehicle offenses; traffic detail, spectator control, and similar duties; and other appropriate professional development. The bill further provides that a constable who was appointed prior to the bill's effective date is required to complete the required training within one year of the bill's effective date. The bill also authorizes the Police Training Commission to prescribe standards for the approval of schools that train constables and a curriculum, to certify constables who have satisfactorily completed training programs, and to issue appropriate certificates to them.
