Bill > SB233

This bill clarifies the qualifications for individuals seeking to become licensed examiners who administer "psychophysiological detection of deception examinations," commonly known as lie detector tests. Specifically, it amends existing law to state that applicants for a Class I license, which allows for broader use of these examinations, are not required to hold a bachelor's degree, and applicants for a Class II license, restricted to law enforcement use for employees, are not required to hold an associate's degree. The bill aims to refine the educational requirements while maintaining other qualifications such as age, citizenship, a clean criminal record, honorable military discharge, passing an examination, and completing internship training, all overseen by the Commissioner of Labor.
