§ 1052. Requirements for Course Certification (Refer to Commission Regulation 1059 for Basic Course Certification Requirements).
Every instructor-led training course submitted to POST for certification, including those presented in a classroom setting or delivered online (i.e., live webinars) but excluding basic courses certified under Commission Regulation 1059, shall be evaluated in accordance with the following factors:
(3) Expanded course outline; Certification I and II will include a statement of purpose. Certification I will require second level of detail, Certification II will require third level of detail or learning objectives and minimum topics. A sufficient level of detail must be included to sufficiently explain the course content.
(C) Training presenters may introduce new learning activities not referenced/described during the initial course certification process to enhance learning. Any new learning activity introduced into the course curriculum on other than a temporary basis shall be added to the expanded course outline and submitted to POST staff for approval of the course modification.
(D) Each training presenter of POST-certified courses involving the manipulative skills training shall implement a formal written safety policy. Training presenters shall at all times develop and implement safety policies for courses when applicable or when student safety is involved. Training presenters shall refer to the POST Guidelines for Student Safety in Certified Courses 2024, herein incorporated by reference, for clarification and requirements. The POST regional consultant shall review and approve safety policies.
(b) Instructor-led Training Course Certification Request Training presenters have the option to submit an instructor-led training course to POST for a Certification I or Certification II request. Conferences, agency specific courses, and courses not financially subsidized by POST, in whole or part, including student per diem or travel, may be submitted as a Certification I request. Any course may be submitted as a Certification II request. Legislatively mandated courses, courses financially subsidized by POST, in whole or part, perishable skills courses, and manipulative skills courses shall be submitted as a Certification II request. The following information, provided to POST via EDI, shall constitute a complete course certification request for instructor-led training and for the instructor-led portion of a blended learning course:
(2) Course instructor resume, shall be completed by the course presenter for each instructor assigned to instruct in any POST certified/ approved course. The Presenter Approval section of the resume shall be completed for each instructor of a “Specialized Training Subject”, listed in Commission Regulation 1070 in compliance with Commission Regulation 1082, and who has been evaluated and met the instructor training requirements. The course instructor resume information collected via EDI shall consist of the following:
(3) Certification I expanded course outline shall minimally include: presenter name, presenter identification number, course name or title on each page, page numbers, revision date, statement of purpose, and subject topics to the second level of detail to sufficiently indicate technical information in the subject areas.
Certification II expanded course outline shall minimally include: presenter name, presenter identification number, course name or title on each page, page numbers, revision date, statement of purpose, subject topics to the third level of detail or learning objectives and minimum topics to sufficiently indicate the technical information in the subject areas, student activities, and methods for assessing student learning. A generic outline example is as follows:
Presenter Name, Presenter Identification Number
Course Name or Title
Page Number
(4) Hourly distribution schedule must indicate the total number of hours per course presentation, total number of days of class, and the total number of days per week. If the course includes legislatively mandated hours, then the hourly distribution schedule must illustrate how the mandate has been met. (Refer to Commission Regulation 1081)
Presenter Name, Presenter Identification Number
Course Name or Title
Page Number
(6) A course budget is required when POST provides reimbursement for training or training presentation; however, a course budget is not required when the total course tuition per student is $125 or less per day of instruction and the reimbursement is limited to subsistence, commuter lunch, and travel.
(1) Presenters should allow a minimum of 60 days for staff to approve the course certification request. Approval must be granted via EDI prior to the presentation of the course. If the request is incomplete, the presenter will be required to make the necessary changes in accordance with Commission Regulation 1052 and resubmit the course via EDI. This may extend the time required to complete the course certification process.
All courses shall be presented as certified. Course presenters shall submit via EDI modification(s) to the budget, course content, total course hours, instructors, location, and/or number of presentations a minimum of 45 days in advance of a course presentation. Approval of the modification must be granted via EDI prior to the presentation of the course. CPT credit will not be awarded to students attending courses presented prior to modification approval.
(e) Courses for which POST has established minimum curriculum and/or hourly requirements must comply with those requirements at the time of the certification request and any subsequent presentations. (See Commission Regulation(s) 1081, 1082, and any training specifications referenced in Commission Procedure D-1, which have been incorporated into regulation by reference.) An exception would be a course pilot presentation that is determined to meet amended curriculum, hourly, and/or course certification requirements, in which case, POST certification and presentation approval may be granted. In addition to meeting the amended curriculum, hourly, and/or course certification requirements, a pilot presentation must meet any additional requirements set forth in Commission Regulations 1052, 1054, 1055, 1056, and 1059. Any course attendee who has successfully completed a POST-certified pilot presentation shall receive credit for the training (thus satisfying the training mandate) even though the training occurred prior to the adoption of the training mandate or required curriculum/hours. POST has established the following process for approval and implementation of a pilot presentation:
(g) The presenter of a POST-certified course shall review all audio-visual training materials and publicly broadcasted material prior to use as a training resource. The review of this material shall emphasize the avoidance of materials that depict situations, tactics, and procedures that could lead a trainee to take inappropriate actions on the job.
Single-track training: All attendees receive the same training at one time.
Multi-track training: attendees can select training from a list of workshops.
POST symposiums are designed to disseminate information or address current and future problems encountered by law enforcement. The Commission may authorize reimbursement for POST symposiums on a Letter of Agreement (LOA) or Training Reimbursement Request (TRR).
