Effective: April 1, 2024
11 CCR § 1005
§ 1005. Minimum Standards for Training. (Refer to Commission Regulation 1007 and Commission Procedure H for Reserve Peace Officer Training Standards).
(a) Minimum Entry-Level Training Standards (Required)
(1) Basic Course Requirement
Every peace officer, except Reserve Levels II and III, those peace officers listed in subsections 1005(a)(2) and (a)(3) [peace officers whose primary duties are investigative], 1005(a)(4) [coroners or deputy coroners], and 1005(a)(7) [jail deputies], shall complete the Regular Basic Course before being assigned duties which include the exercise of peace officer powers. Requirements for the Regular Basic Course are set forth in Commission Procedure D-1-3.
(A) Field Training Program Requirement
Every peace officer, except Reserve Levels II and III, jail deputies, and those officers described in subsections 1005(a)(1)(B)1-5, following completion of the Regular Basic Course and before being assigned to perform general law enforcement uniformed patrol duties without direct and immediate supervision, shall complete a POST-approved Field Training Program as set forth in Commission Procedure D-13.
(B) Exemptions to the Field Training Program Requirement
An officer is exempt from the Field Training Program requirement following completion of the Regular Basic Course:
1. While the officer's assignment remains custodial related, or
2. If the officer's employing department does not provide general law enforcement uniformed patrol services and the department has been granted an exemption as specified in Commission Regulation 1004, or
3. If the officer is a lateral entry officer possessing a POST Basic Certificate and who has either:
a. Completed a POST-approved Field Training Program, or
b. One year previous experience performing general law enforcement uniformed patrol duties, or
4. If the officer was a Level I Reserve and is appointed to a full-time peace officer position within the same department and has previously completed the department's entire POST-approved Field Training Program within the last 12 months of the new appointment, or has the signed concurrence of the department head attesting to the individual's competence, based upon experience and/or other field training as a solo general law enforcement uniformed patrol officer, or
5. If the officer's employing department has obtained approval of a field training compliance extension request provided for in Commission Regulation 1004.
More specific information regarding basic training requirements is located in Commission Procedure D-1.
(C) Basic Course Waiver
A Basic Course Waiver (BCW) provides an exemption from the Regular Basic Course (RBC) or Specialized Investigator Basic Course (SIBC) training requirements. A BCW is granted to individuals with qualifying out of state or federal law enforcement experience, whose law enforcement training, experience and education are deemed by POST to demonstrate sufficient law enforcement knowledge, skill and proficiency. The prescribed course of training appropriate to the individual's appointment is determined by the Commission and is specified in subsection 1005(a) or Commission Regulation 1007(a). The requirements for the RBC and SIBC are specified in Commission Procedure D-1.
Acceptance of the BCW in lieu of successful completion of a RBC or SIBC is at the discretion of the employing agency. The BCW does not determine an individual's employability, nor is it a means of requalifying training. Individuals with prior qualifying California law enforcement experience are not eligible for the BCW and must complete requalification as defined in Commission Regulation 1008.
A BCW is valid for three years from the date it is granted. After three years, the requirements for requalification or attendance in a RBC or SIBC attach, as specified in Commission Regulation 1008. Individuals may not apply for a second BCW unless they qualify for the following exception:
An individual who has been employed continuously in another state as a full-time peace officer, general or investigative, with less than a three-year break in qualifying employment may reapply for the appropriate waiver one time. A new application (including training certification information) must be filed, subject to the training standards, testing, and fee requirements in effect at the time of submission of the new application. An individual who receives a second Basic Course Waiver has a maximum of three years following completion of requalification to obtain qualifying employment. After three years, the requirements for requalification or attendance in a RBC or SIBC attach, as specified in Commission Regulation 1008.
A waiver of attendance for the RBC will satisfy attendance at SIBC. However, a waiver of attendance for SIBC training does not satisfy the RBC training requirement.
1. Eligibility
a. Regular Basic Course Waiver (RBCW)
To be eligible for a waiver of the RBC, an individual must meet the following training, education and experience requirements:
i. Successful completion of a 200 hour minimum basic general law enforcement training course certified or approved by California POST or a similar standards agency of another state, or a federal agency general law enforcement basic course, and
ii. At least 664 hours of general law enforcement training, which includes the basic course requirement listed in subsection 1005(a)(1)(A) and
iii. Legislatively mandated training included in the POST-certified RBC, and
iv. At least one year of continuous full-time out-of-state general law enforcement experience with one agency as defined in Commission Regulation 1001. Experience must have been acquired subsequent to the completion of basic training.
b. Specialized Investigators' Basic Course Waiver (SIBCW)
To be eligible for a waiver of the SIBC, an individual must meet the following training, education and experience requirements:
i. Successful completion of a basic investigative course similar in content to the SIBC, certified or approved by California POST or a similar standards agency of another state, or a federal agency general or investigative basic course.
ii. At least 591 hours of investigative or general law enforcement training, which includes the basic course requirement listed in subsection 1005(a)(1)(a), and
iii. Legislatively mandated training included in the POST-certified SIBC, and
iv. At least one year of continuous full-time out-of-state or federal investigative experience, or general law enforcement experience, with one agency. Experience must have been acquired subsequent to the completion of basic training and, as determined by POST, commensurate with law enforcement duties of California investigative agencies.
2. Basic Course Waiver Process
A Basic Course Waiver shall be determined through a four-step process: (1) Application/Self-Assessment, Documentation, and Fee Requirements; (2) POST Training Evaluation; (3) Basic Course Waiver Assessment; and (4) Waiver Issuance.
Step 1: Basic Course Waiver Application/Self-Assessment and Documentation and Fee Requirements
a. Self-Assessment: Prior to submitting an application for a Basic Course Waiver, an individual must conduct a self-assessment to verify successful completion of the requirements listed in the applicable section above.
b. Documentation Requirements: The Regular Basic Course Waiver Application, POST 2-267 (Rev. 10/2023), or Specialized Investigators' Basic Course Waiver Application, POST 2-353 (Rev. 10/2023), which are hereby incorporated by reference, must be submitted together with the supporting training, education, and experience documentation described below. The application form must be signed by the individual and the department head, when appropriate. Each application must be accompanied by the following supporting documentation:
i. Basic Course: A certificate of completion and copy of the course curriculum that outlines course content and hours that is consistent with the date of completion on the certificate.
ii. Other Training: Certificates of completion, training records, or similar documentation of related training.
iii. Education: Official transcripts. One semester unit shall be equivalent to a maximum of 20 training hours and one quarter unit shall be equivalent to a maximum of 14 training hours.
iv. Experience: Written verification of experience shall be listed on agency letterhead from the department head, training manager, or personnel department for which the applicant was employed. The document must specifically state that the applicant completed at least one year of general law enforcement following completion of basic training (or investigative experience, if appropriate). The letter must be accompanied by a duty statement for the position held by the applicant. If the applicant is unable to obtain a letter stating completion of at least one year general law enforcement (or investigative experience, if appropriate), POST can evaluate the duty statement and the letter identifying continuous employment with one agency, subsequent to completion of basic training, to establish qualifying experience.
v. Fee: Certified check, money order or electronic payment, payable to the Commission on POST, in the amount specified on the BCW Application.
Incomplete application packets will not be considered for review and will be returned to the applicant.
Step 2: POST Training Evaluation
Upon receipt of the completed BCW Application, all supporting documents and the appropriate fee, POST will evaluate the individual's prior training, education and experience.
Individuals will be notified if additional supporting documents are necessary and/or if application is deficient in one or more areas. An individual shall have up to 180 days from date of notification to provide additional verification without the payment of an additional evaluation fee. Failure to provide the additional verification within that time period will result in closure of the application process. Once closed, a new application (including training certification information) must be filed, subject to the training standards, testing, and fee requirements in effect at the time of submission of the new application.
The individual and the agency, when appropriate, will be notified of the results of the evaluation. If the application is approved, the individual will be eligible to complete the BCW Assessment Process.
Step 3: Basic Course Waiver Assessment Process
a. Assessment Methods
There are two methods by which the BCW assessment can be accomplished:
(1) Attendance and successful completion of a POST-certified Requalification Course; or
(2) Successful completion of the BCW Testing Process which is only available to individuals who meet the following criteria:
a. Entering California law enforcement with qualifying out of state or federal law enforcement experience, and
b. Will be appointed at middle management or executive rank and will function at the second-level of supervision or above, and
c. Have less than a three year break from the last date of service as a peace officer, and
d. Submits a letter from the prospective hiring agency, signed by the agency head, that includes the intent to hire the applicant at middle management or executive rank, and a description of the intended job classification and duty assignment.
Once an assessment method is chosen, an individual may not switch to the other option. The BCW assessment process must be successfully completed within one hundred eighty days of notification by POST of approval of the evaluation.
Assessment Method 1: POST-Certified Requalification Course.
i. The one hundred sixty hour Requalification Course must be taken through a qualified presenter.
ii. Course content and testing requirements can be found in the POST Training and Testing Specifications.
Assessment Method 2: Basic Course Waiver Testing Process.
The testing process consists of the two components identical to the Requalification Course examinations:
i. A comprehensive test designed to evaluate an individual's knowledge of basic course content.
ii. Exercise tests designed to evaluate an individual's manipulative skills acquired in the basic course.
iii. The testing process is to be administered through a POST Testing Center. Both components are graded pass/fail and must be successfully completed.
b. Retest
i. A comprehensive retest shall be allowed one time only. Arrangements for the comprehensive retest must be made directly with the same POST-certified Requalification Course presenter or POST Testing Center at which the initial comprehensive test was taken. Retesting must take place within ninety days of the initial test. An individual who fails the retest, fails the Requalification Course.
ii. Retest of one or more modules of the exercise shall be allowed one time only. Arrangements for the skills retest must be made directly with the same POST-certified Requalification Course presenter or POST Testing Center in which the skills examination was originally taken. Retesting must take place within ninety days of the initial test. An individual who does not pass the failed module(s) of the skills retest fails the Requalification Course.
iii. An individual who has failed the Requalification Course or testing option may repeat Step 3 one time within 12 months of the date of failure. After a 30-day waiting period, the individual shall submit a written request to POST for approval before contacting the Requalification Presenter or POST Testing Center. When an individual fails to successfully repeat Step 3 they are no longer eligible for a waiver and must complete the appropriate POST-certified basic course (RBC or SIBC) before exercising peace officer powers.
Step 4: Issuance of Waiver/Waiver of Attendance
a. Upon successful completion of the waiver process, a Waiver of Attendance of the appropriate POST-certified basic course will be granted by POST.
b. Acceptance of a waiver for meeting the appropriate Basic Course training standard shall be at the discretion of the employing agency.
(2) Every district attorney investigator or inspector (Penal Code section 830.1), regularly employed and paid as such, shall minimally complete either the Regular Basic Course or Specialized Investigators' Basic Course, Commission Procedure D-1, before being assigned the duties which include the exercise of peace officer powers. In addition to the basic course training requirement, the POST-certified District Attorney Investigator Transition Course, Commission Procedure D-14, shall be completed within 12 months from the date of appointment.
(3) Every peace officer whose primary duties are investigative, except district attorney investigators or inspectors, shall complete, within 12 months from the date of appointment, the Regular Basic Course or the Specialized Investigators' Basic Course, Commission Procedure D-1-4, as elected by the department head.

(4) Every coroner or deputy coroner [as defined in Penal Code section 830.35(c)], regularly employed and paid as such, shall satisfactorily complete the Penal Code section 832 (PC 832) Arrest Course and, when applicable, the PC 832 Firearms Course, Commission Procedure D-1-7, before the exercise of peace officer powers. In addition to the PC 832 Course(s), satisfactory completion of the POST-certified Coroners' Death Investigation Course, Commission Procedure D-1-6, is also required within 12 months from date of appointment. The Coroners' Death Investigation Course requirement shall only apply to peace officer coroners hired on or after the agency enters the POST program.
(5) Every school police officer employed by a K-12 school district or California Community College district before July 1, 1999, in addition to the Regular Basic Course requirement set forth in subsection 1005(a)(1), shall complete a POST-certified Campus Law Enforcement Course [(Commission Regulation 1081(a)] no later than July 1, 2002.

(7) Every jail deputy [Penal Code section 830.1(c)] shall satisfactorily meet the training requirements of the PC 832 Arrest and Firearms Course, Commission Procedure D-1-7; and within 120 days after the date of appointment, shall complete the training required by the Board of State and Community Corrections for custodial personnel pursuant to Penal Code section 6035, and the training required for custodial personnel of local detention facilities pursuant to Division 1 (commencing with Section 100) of Title 15 of the California Code of Regulations.
(8) Every limited function peace officer shall satisfactorily meet the training requirements of the PC 832 Arrest and Firearms Course, Commission Procedure D-1-7; however training in the carrying and use of firearms shall not be required when an employing agency prohibits limited function peace officers the use of firearms.
(9) Every peace officer prior to exercising peace officer powers shall complete the requirements of Penal Code section 832, which may be part of the minimum basic training standard or a separately certified course.
(b) Supervisory Course (Required)
(1) Every peace officer (except jail deputies) promoted, appointed, or transferred to a first-level supervisory position after July 1, 2018, shall satisfactorily complete a certified Supervisory Course either 12 months prior to promotion or within 12 months after the initial promotion, appointment, or transfer to such position. An officer who will be appointed within 12 months to a first-level supervisory position or an officer assigned to a quasi-supervisory position may attend a Supervisory Course, if authorized by the department head. Requirements for the Supervisory Course are set forth in Commission Procedure D-3.
(2) Every department participating in the POST reimbursement program may be reimbursed for completion of the Supervisory Course by an officer as described in subsection 1005(b)(1), provided that the officer is full time and has been awarded or is eligible for the award of the Basic Certificate.
(c) Management Course (Required)

An officer who will be appointed within 12 months to a middle management or higher position or an officer who is assigned to a first-level supervisory position may attend a Management Course, if authorized by the department head. Completion of the Supervisory Course is a prerequisite to attending the Management Course. Requirements for the Management Course are set forth in Commission Procedure D-4.
(2) Every department participating in the POST reimbursement program may be reimbursed for completion of the Management Course by an officer described in subsection 1005(c)(1), provided the officer is full time and has satisfactorily completed the Supervisory Course.
(3) Every regular officer who is duly elected or appointed to the Board of Directors or Executive Board of a local Peace Officer Association or Deputy Sheriff Association may attend a certified Management Course if authorized by their department head. The officer's jurisdiction may be reimbursed following satisfactory completion of such training provided that the officer has satisfactorily completed the training requirements of the Supervisory Course.
(4) Every regular officer who is duly elected or appointed to the Board of Directors of a local Peace Officer Association or Deputy Sheriff Association and is on 100% release from their organization may attend the Management Course without prior approval of their department head.
(d) Continuing Professional Training (CPT) (Required) CPT is required for certain peace officer and dispatcher personnel who are employed by POST participating departments. The purpose of CPT is to maintain, update, expand, and/or enhance an individual's knowledge and/or skills. CPT is training that exceeds the training required to meet or requalify in entry-level minimum standards. Qualifying and non-qualifying courses are described in Subsection 1005(d)(3) below.
(1) Requirement
Every peace officer (other than a Level III Reserve Peace Officer), every Public Safety Dispatcher, and every Public Safety Dispatch Supervisor shall satisfactorily complete the CPT requirement of 24 or more hours of POST-qualifying training during every two-year CPT cycle, based on the statewide CPT Anniversary Date as specified in Subsection 1005(d)(2) below. Completion by jail deputies of in-service training required by Standards and Training for Corrections (STC) for custodial officers [Section 100 et seq. of Title 15] is considered to meet the POST CPT requirement.
Effective January 1, 2009, certain peace officers in specific duty assignments must satisfy a portion of the CPT requirement by completing Perishable Skills training as specified in Subsection 1005(d)(4).
(2) Determination of Two-Year Cycle
The beginning date for the two-year CPT cycle for all POST participating agencies will be January 1, 2009.
(A) CPT Cycle Start
Effective January 1, 2009, the CPT Anniversary Date is used to start a peace officer's or dispatcher's CPT training cycle. The actual CPT cycle will start only after the employing department is an authorized participant in the POST Program.
1. One Time Transition Period
For purposes of implementing the CPT Anniversary Date, a transition period, with no CPT requirement, is granted to all personnel appointed to any California peace officer or dispatcher position identified in subsection 1005(d)(1).
2. First-Time Appointments
A grace period with no CPT requirements, is granted when an individual is appointed for the first time to one of the subsection 1005(d)(1) positions. This grace period is the time period between the individual's appointment date and the first occurrence of the CPT Anniversary Date. It is granted to allow completion of entry-level requirements that do not count towards CPT.
3. Reappointments/Lateral Transfers
A grace period, with no CPT requirement, is granted for an individual rehired into one of the subsection 1005(d)(1) positions with the same department or who transfers to a different department. This grace period is the time between the date reappointed and the next cycle CPT Anniversary Date.
4. Reappointments
A grace period, with no CPT requirement, is granted for an individual rehired into one of the subsection 1005(d)(1) positions with the same department. This grace period is the time between the date reappointed and the next cycle CPT Anniversary Date.
(B) Status Changes
As the CPT Anniversary Date is a statewide permanently assigned date, it does not change with status changes within a peace officer or dispatcher classification series (e.g., promotion, lateral transfer, probation, military leave, or administrative leave, etc.)
(C) Dual Employment
In some situations, an individual may have dual employment as a peace officer/peace officer, a dispatcher/dispatcher, or as a peace officer and a dispatcher.
1. Within the Same Classification
The same requirement applies to a dispatcher working for two departments simultaneously. The individual holding two positions in the same classification (i.e., dispatcher/dispatcher classification) shall be held to the statewide CPT cycle.
2. Within Two Different Classifications
The same requirement applies to an individual employed as a peace officer and a dispatcher whether within the same or different departments (e.g., a peace officer who is also a dispatcher). In such cases, the CPT remains separate for the peace officer job and the dispatcher job. The CPT training must be job-related to qualify. See the examples in subsection 1005(a)(2)(C)3.
3. Dual CPT Credit POST-certified training courses attended by an individual in dual employment, such as a peace officer and dispatcher, may count for CPT credit for both positions/classifications if the training course is job related for both a peace officer and a dispatcher. For example, a Tactical Shotgun course would not qualify as CPT for dispatchers. A Missing Persons course is job-related for both dispatcher and peace officer classifications and would qualify for dual CPT credit.
(D) CPT Training in Excess of 24 Hours
POST-qualifying CPT training in excess of 24 hours during a two-year cycle shall not be credited toward any future or prior CPT cycles.
(3) Qualifying and Non-Qualifying Training
Subsection 1005(d) CPT requirement is met by satisfactory completion of one or more POST-certified courses totaling a minimum of 24 hours, as referenced below.
(A) While recommended topics for CPT are listed in Commission Procedure D-2, POST-certified training courses may be used for CPT credit, with the exception of the following POST-certified courses that do not qualify for CPT:
Regular Basic Course -- Standard Format
Regular Basic Course -- Modular Format (all components)
Field Training Program
District Attorney Investigator Transition Course
Specialized Investigators' Basic Course
PC 832, Arrest and Firearms Course
Coroners' Death Investigation Course
Campus Law Enforcement Course
Aviation Security Course
Public Safety Dispatcher's Basic Course
POST Requalification Course
POST Workshops (those designed to provide input or advice to POST)
Field Management Training
Team Building Workshops
(B) The CPT requirement may be satisfied by an alternative method of compliance as determined by the Commission, i.e., non-POST-certified courses (refer to Commission Regulation 1060 and Commission Procedure D-2-3).
(4) Perishable Skills Requirements for CPT
Effective January 1, 2002, all peace officers (except reserve officers and jail deputies) below the middle management position are required to complete Perishable Skills training. In-lieu of completing the training, the requirement may be met by successfully passing a presenter-developed test that measures the approved training objectives.
